Vanaspara (ruled circa 130 CE) was an Indo-Scythian Northern Satrap. He is mentioned as a "Satrap" of Kushan ruler Kanishka I on an inscription discovered in Sarnath, and dated to the 3rd year of Kanishka (c. 130 CE), in which Kanishka mentions he was, together with "Great Satrap" Kharapallana, governor of the eastern parts of his Empire, while a "General Lala" and Satraps Vespasi and Liaka are put in charge of the north.
The inscription was discovered on an early statue of a Boddhisattva, the Sarnath Bala Boddhisattva, now in the Sarnath Museum .
Vanaspara and Kharapallana were ruling for Kanishka over the eastern provinces of the Empire, including the Benares region. The policies of Vanaspara were noted at the time. He is said to have persecuted the Brahmins (prajdt cha- brahma-bhuyishthah) and high-class Hindus, in favor of low-caste men and foreigners.
