)[1] was a ruler of the Western Satraps. His reign lasted possibly[2] from c. 251 AD to 256 AD.[3][4]
Damajadasri was one of the four sons of Damasena. Damajadasri was the youngest of his siblings. He succeeded his elder brother Vijayasena as a ruler.[3]
He most likely held the title of mahaksatrapa. There is no evidence that he would have held the office of ksatrapa.[5]
Large amounts of coins struck in name of Damajadasri have been found.[5]
Damajadasri was succeeded as Western Satrap by his nephew Rudrasena II who was a son of Viradaman.[2]
