The Mathura lion capital is an Indo-Scythian sandstone capital from Mathura in Central India, dated to the 1st century CE.

The capital-lion Saka inscriptions at Peshawar and Mathura state "Sarvasa Sakasthanasa Puyae" [capital lion inscriptions at the twin Saka capitals of Mathura and Peshawar] that means (in English language) "for the merit of the people of Sakasthana."[1]
