The queen of the third ruler of the dynasty was the daughter of a Maharathi chief and there is ample evidence to show that Berar and Maharashtra were studded with Rathika and Bhoja feudatories.

Two inscriptions found in these caves are down below Inscription from Karle Cave: "Queen Samadinika is the Mahadevi and Maratha-ini (female Maratha)" Inscription from Bedsa Cave: "Agimitrank (another name for Gautamiputra), son of Goti, is a great warrior, a Mahratta."

@@JayVardhanSingh I said the inscription uses the term Maratha. Even Jain scripts from that era say Satavahanas are Marathas. You are confusing the term Maratha which is a community with Maharathi which is a title. Also the Satavahanas offical language was Maharashtri Prakrit from which both Marathi and Konkani come from. So it doesn't matter if they use the term Marathi or not because they went on to create the language.
The place is called Naneghat (नाणेधाट) नाणं (plural नाणे) means coin in Marathi and ghat means stairs or in this case a passage through the mountains. There is a big stone pitcher that might have been used to collect coins as toll to pass through this place in Sahyadri Mountains (Western Ghats) when going from Paithan in the plateau region to sea ports of Sopara and Kalyan.
Hey Jay, coming back to this video today. @8:18 Looks like indeed the early date of 230 BC, has one more evidence. The Hathigumpha inscription of Kharvela of Kaling mentions a ‘Satakamni’(likely Satakarni) that he fights on his western boundary. So looks like Satavahanas existed before Mauryas and came back to power after Ashoka. Kharvela, Ashoka and Satakarni were contemporaries. Maybe Bindusara and Simukh were contemporaries too and Kanha was placed as a titular head by Ashoka. Incidentally the Ashokan Buddhist caves in Mumbai are called ‘Kanheri’ caves. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hathigumpha_inscription
Good Video! Came here after watching the video about Satavahana - Western Kshatrap conflicts. Still a bit unsure which Satakarni, first or second, is called Gautamiputra?
Satakarni I and Satakarni II ruled earlier. Gautamiputra Satakarni is a different ruler, who came after the Hala, the 17th Satavahana ruler. The Naneghat inscription is about Satakarni I. I hope it clears your doubt.
Hey Jai, do you have any ideas or info about the history of Sindh and greater Balochistan region (Helmand valley)? Because of the Eastwards shift of Indic political power during the Iron age, the history of these regions is almost entirely lost. Sindh hasn't existed in the Indic mind since a very long time and came to Indic consciousness only with British rule. It will be good if you could shed some light on the history of the lower Indus region.
Dear Jaya Vardhan, I find your videos are highly informative and unbiased. But your pronunciation of the names is not always correct especially in the present video. It is Saata vahana, which means one who rides a tiger , not sat vahan. Again it is Srimukha and not Simuk.
One correction is that, Naneghat cave is not in Nasik, it is at a mountain pass in the Western Ghats range between the Konkan coast and the ancient town of Junnar in the Deccan plateau. Nasik Cave or Trirashmi Cave is at Nasik which mostly having the inscription by the Stavahan and Shak rulers. Oldest known Satavahana inscription by king Kanha is located in the same cave.
Hey Jay..again great info.. satvahana are called Andhra..but do we have any origin of word Andhra.. Btw there is one Telugu movie on Gautamiputra satkarni..although not historically correct but fun to watch.. hema malini played role for mother Gautami
Thank you Saurabh. I don't know the origin of "Andhra" but it is quite an old word as it appears first time in the Atharvaveda. And thanks for the recommendation, will probably watch this movie some day.
8:31 What about the third group, the mid chronology? Originally proposed by Dr. Dehejia , later explained by Shailendra Bhandare and then Andrew Ollett.
Andhras were mentioned in Mahabharata. Satavahanas called themselves Andhras. Looks like the gentleman who posted the video is a Marati trying to ignoire the eastern part of the Satavahana empire.

It makes more sense that it was an earlier ruler. Would you think if this Satakarni was after Srimukha or his predecessor? Is it also possible that this same Satakarni might have ended Srunga and Kansa rule?

The Satavahan kings were the followers of Buddhism,Naneghat caves' inscriptions proves it,they didn't have their own kingdom but under the Mauryas' suprimacy they were allowed to have their sub- Kingdom. The Satavahans may be belonged to Marahatt community of Maharashtra,but at one place it is mentioned that they belonged to Brahmin community,but that may not be true. In the Indian history only once they became the king making conspiracy against Mourya dynasty that is Pushpamitra Shungh.
If Piyushmitra shunga killed brhidarth maurya by conspirancy, then remember if he had not killed magadh would be invaded by indo greeks and history would be something else due to piyushmitra shunga only menander lost otherwise if brihidarth maurya would be there he would had been easily defeated, if you are attacking piyushmitra shunga just on the basis of this then remember your whole haryanka dynasty kings (which was buddhist ) were made by killing their respective father ajatshtru killed bimbisara ajatshatru was killed by udayin udayin was killed by aniruddha aniruddha was killed by munda munda was killed by nagdashak why you are not pointing this one just because they were buddhist and piyushmitra shunga was vedic, such hatred
They belong to brahmin community if it is mentioned then why it is not true no sense🤡same applies to those sources who claim satvahan to be buddhist they are also not true naneghat caves inscription proove satvahan kings hindu even the name in itself is derived from hinduism
Satavahanas are of Telugu heritage. They just expanded their rule in Maharashtra. There's no such thing as marati when Satavahanas were ruling. There are many pure Telugu words used in inscriptions. The king name Pulumavi is a pure Telugu name. Even Ashoka, Greek traveller & puranas mentioned them as Andhra Satavahanas. They ruled from present day Andhra, Amaravati which we again made it as capital of Andhra now. Jainism is so prevalent in amaravati because of their capital there. These maharashtrians claiming Satavahanas as marati is like Telugus claiming chalukyas as Telugu origin just because they ruled from Andhra & tamils claiming Nayakars as tamils. One thing is for sure, today Telugus became the owners of half land of South India even after many invasions & Dynasties just because we had big forefathers like Satavahanas earlier. This can't be possible if we didn't have powerful kingdoms earlier
I think the telegu's being landowner argument is quite good. But what about marathis saying that there are plenty of Marathi inscriptions and works on Marathi as well. Just to make it clear, I am neither telegu not Marathi. I'm Bihari. This debate has no personal value for me. I'm just curious.
@@randomturd1415 Thanks for understanding. Kannada incriptions are found in Maharashtra, tamil inscriptions are found in Andhra, Telugu inscriptions are found in Tamil Nadu. This inscriptions doesn't mean they belong to the land they were found. Take the great Mauryan Empire that started in Bihar. Inscriptions related to mourya Empire are found in Pakistan & Afghanistan too. That doesn't mean Mouryan Empire belongs to those countries. It's Bihar Empire. Unfortunately the once the great Bihar now became a laughing stock now because of religious fanaticism. Hope things change soon. It's the same with Satavahanas, it's said that Telugus history started from Andhra Satavahanas itself. Even Greek traveller Megasthanes (350 - 290 BCE) mentions about Andhra saying a powerful tribe named "Andarae", whose king maintained an army of 100,000 infantry, 2,000 cavalry and 1,000 elephants. Andhra Satavahanas started the first South Indian Empire. Was the first to start south East Asian trade in South India Was the first to start coinage with the ruler's face on it. Today Ugadi is celebrated on such a scale in Maharashtra, Andhra, Telangana & Karnataka all because of Andhra Satavahanas only.
@@pokemonitishere202Nice Historical fallacy filled with modern day petty regionalism. Satavahanas were most probably Brahman origin who spoke Sanskrit. Prakrit was their lingua franca. It was ruled by neither Telugu nor Marathi speakers. Marathi did not even exist back then. Neither there was Bihar back then.
@@bhanupratap1063 Following ans will help understand Satvahanas history. The source of the ans is given in the end for the information used in the ans is from a book; the name given at the end of the ans by the User. As follows:- The Satavahana dynasty is the first known historical dynasty of Maharashtra. The Puranas call this dynasty Andhra. So all early historians such as R. G. Bhandarkar, Bühler, Rapson and Vincent Smith believed that the Satavahanas had their original home in the Andhra country. But if this view is accepted, we shall have to suppose that within one or two generations after their rise in Andhra they spread their power as far west as Konkan on the Western coast. This appears extremely incredible. The early inscriptions and coins of this family have been found not in Andhra but in Western Maharashtra including Konkan. It is interesting to note that the Puranas nowhere describe the dynasty as Satavahana and inscriptions nowhere name it as Andhra. How are we to explain this paradox? K. Gopalachari advances an ingenious theory in this connection: "He suggests that the Satavahanas were really Andhras by ethnical extraction. Under Ashoka, we find a Greek governor, probably a native of Kamboja, appointed to rule over Kathiavad. In the same way some scions of the extinct Andhra dynasty may have been appointed as governors or district officers to rule in Maharashtra. Later on when Ashoka’s empire began to decay, Simuka, who was one of the Andhra officers governing at Pratisthana, declared independence and founded a new dynasty. Puranas knew this real origin of Simuka and have given the correct name to his house." This theory is ingenious, but not convincing. We have similar parallels in later history. The Calukyas and Rashtrakutas established branches of their dynasties in Andhradesa and Gujarat; the Senas from Karnataka established a dynasty in Bengal. There is, therefore, nothing impossible in one of the Andhra officers of Ashoka having established a house in Maharashtra. But why should the real name of the dynasty not occur even in a single official record issued by it? The Calukyas of Vengi and the Rashtrakutas of Gujarat always called themselves as scions of the Calukya or the Rastrakuta family. They never use any other name. Why then should the Satavahanas have been so careful as to eschew their original name from all their official records? Surely, there was no provincialism running riot in those days. A name which was so carefully boycotted by the dynasty from all its official records is not likely to be known to the Puranic writers who probably hailed from the distant Gangetic plain. The only probable explanation of the fact of the Puranas describing the Satavahanas as Andhras, would appear to be the assumption that they knew only of the later history of the dynasty, when the centre of its power was shifted to Andhradesa. The inscriptions of Ashoka and the account of Megasthenes show that the modern Andhradesa was known by that name in the 3rd century B.C. The Mayidavolu plates prove that the nomenclature continued down to the 4th century A.D. for it refers to a district in Andhrapatha. A power which was ruling over the territory in c. 200 A.D. was naturally described as Andhra by the Puranas. The nomenclature has no connection with the Andhaka subdivision of the Yadavas, who had no connection with the Satavahanas. Nor does it seem to be connected with the rivulet Andhra flowing near Karli. The dynastic lists in the Puranas appear to have been prepared in circa A. D. 320 for they do not contain any reference to later dynasties or kings. We have seen above that the Satavahanas fell in circa A. D. 230. At that time, the centre of Satavahana power was in Andhra. An inscription of Gautamiputra Vijaya Satakarni, one of the later kings of the dynasty has been found at Nagarjunakond in the Andhra country. It shows that he had founded a city named Vijayapuri (now known as Nagarjunakond) which he made his capital. His coins have not been found anywhere in Western Maharashtra. The latter country was then under the rule of Chutukula Satakarni. It is not, therefore surprising that the dynastic lists in the Puranas which were prepared in this later period call the Satavahanas as Andhras. No other evidence shows that they originally hailed from the Andhra country. R. G. Bhandarkar read Dhanakajaka in a Násik Cave inscription and on the basis of it, inferred that the early Sätavahanas had their cap toital at the place now known as Dharanikot in Andhra but as Historian Senart has shown, the correct reading there is Benākajaka, which as we have shown elsewhereis the region round Pauni on the bank of the Vená (or the Vainganga) in the Bhandara District of Vidarbha. Historian Vincent Smith identified the capital of the Satavahanas with Srikakulam in the Andhra Pradesh but the evidences for it is as late as the eleventh century A. D. So it is not reliable. There are several inscriptions connected with the Great Stüpa at Amaravati in Andhra but none of them mentions any early Satvahana king. On the other hand, we get references to other rulers of Andhra in the records of the early period. For instance, we have in an inscription from Bhattiprolu in Andhra mentions of King Kubiraka who on the evidence of palacography seems to have flourished not long after Ashoka. He was not of the Satavahana family. In the Hathigumpha inscription King Kharavela who flourished in circa 150 to 135 B.C. is said to have devastated the city of Pithunda and defeated the confederacy of Tramira kings. If the Satavahanas had been ruling in Andhra in that period , he would have mentioned them in that connection. He does not do so. So it is quite certain that the early Satavahanas were not ruling in the Godavari - Krishna region in that age. Historian V. S. Sukthankar published an inscription of the Satavahana king Pulumavi found at Macdoni in the Bellari District of Karnataka. It mentioned Satavaahanihara (the territorial division of the Satavahanas), from which he inferred that the Satavahanas originally hailed from that region. But the inference does not seem valid, for that district has no other antiquities of the Satavahana age. Dr. V. S. Sukhtankar has advanced the theory that the home of the Satavahanas should be located in Bellary district, where a Satavahana record was discovered at Myakadoni, recording the construction of a tank in the reign of Sri Pulumavi. This record describes the tank as situated in Satavahani-hara and it is possible to argue that the Bellary district happened to be so called because it was the original ahara or district of the Satavahanas. This argument considered by itself, is not without some force. But we have to note that hardly any early Satavahana antiquities have been found in Bellary district or its neighbourhood. And it is quite possible to explain the origin of the term Satavahani-hara for Bellary by another assumption. The inscription refers itself to the reign of Pulumavi, This Pulumavi was the last king of the Satavahana dynasty. When his power spread to that region at the end of the Satavahana period, it seems to have been so designated in order to distinguish it from other neighbouring territories. We have another similar territorial designation, viz Sätähanirattha mentioned in the later Hirahadagalli plates of the Pallava king Siva Skandavarman. During the British rule, it was customary to describe Satara as a British district as distinguished from its neighbour Kolhapur, which was under an Indian ruler. Satara however was not under the British from early times.

There is a big stone pitcher that might have been used to collect coins as toll to pass through this place in Sahyadri Mountains (Western Ghats) when going from Paithan in the plateau region to sea ports of Sopara and Kalyan.
Interesting. नाणयम् (nānayam) in Malayalam means coin as well.
Nane also means coin in Telugu.
Nanayam is also called coin in Tamil

Hey Jay, coming back to this video today. @8:18 Looks like indeed the early date of 230 BC, has one more evidence. The Hathigumpha inscription of Kharvela of Kaling mentions a ‘Satakamni’(likely Satakarni) that he fights on his western boundary. So looks like Satavahanas existed before Mauryas and came back to power after Ashoka. Kharvela, Ashoka and Satakarni were contemporaries. Maybe Bindusara and Simukh were contemporaries too and Kanha was placed as a titular head by Ashoka. Incidentally the Ashokan Buddhist caves in Mumbai are called ‘Kanheri’ caves.

Good Video! Came here after watching the video about Satavahana - Western Kshatrap conflicts. Still a bit unsure which Satakarni, first or second, is called Gautamiputra?
Satakarni I and Satakarni II ruled earlier. Gautamiputra Satakarni is a different ruler, who came after the Hala, the 17th Satavahana ruler.
The Naneghat inscription is about Satakarni I. I hope it clears your doubt.

Hey Jai, do you have any ideas or info about the history of Sindh and greater Balochistan region (Helmand valley)? Because of the Eastwards shift of Indic political power during the Iron age, the history of these regions is almost entirely lost.
Sindh hasn't existed in the Indic mind since a very long time and came to Indic consciousness only with British rule. It will be good if you could shed some light on the history of the lower Indus region.
Dear Jaya Vardhan, I find your videos are highly informative and unbiased. But your pronunciation of the names is not always correct especially in the present video. It is Saata vahana, which means one who rides a tiger , not sat vahan. Again it is Srimukha and not Simuk.
In prakrit, shrimukha became simuk
Such an amazing video.
One correction is that, Naneghat cave is not in Nasik, it is at a mountain pass in the Western Ghats range between the Konkan coast and the ancient town of Junnar in the Deccan plateau.
Nasik Cave or Trirashmi Cave is at Nasik which mostly having the inscription by the Stavahan and Shak rulers.
Oldest known Satavahana inscription by king Kanha is located in the same cave.

We aren't sure. there's debate on it but it was definitely not Gautamiputra Satakarni.
The age of Satavahanas by Ajay Mitra Sastri and The age of Satavahanas by B.S.L Hanumanta rao are better sources for Satavahanas than books by Nilakanta Sastri and Hem Chandra Rey
Hello Jay. Do you know which Satavahana king is the contemporary of Kharavela?
In the inscription he is called Satakarni. There are different theories about who this Satakarni was but I believe most likely it was Satakarni I
It makes more sense that it was an earlier ruler. Would you think if this Satakarni was after Srimukha or his predecessor? Is it also possible that this same Satakarni might have ended Srunga and Kansa rule?
No, I don't think it is possible.
Satavahanas originally from Karnataka.

It's not satvahana
It's सातवाहन (the drivers of seven)
Seven may be horses or rivers
Hence saatvahan is correct not satvahana (सतवाहना)
The Satavahan kings were the followers of Buddhism,Naneghat caves' inscriptions proves it,they didn't have their own kingdom but under the Mauryas' suprimacy they were allowed to have their sub- Kingdom. The Satavahans may be belonged to Marahatt community of Maharashtra,but at one place it is mentioned that they belonged to Brahmin community,but that may not be true. In the Indian history only once they became the king making conspiracy against Mourya dynasty that is Pushpamitra Shungh.
Then why did he perform Vedic Sacrifices? Also in addition to Shungas Kanvas, Vakatakas, Kadambas, etc were also Brahmins.
🤡
If Piyushmitra shunga killed brhidarth maurya by conspirancy, then remember if he had not killed magadh would be invaded by indo greeks and history would be something else due to piyushmitra shunga only menander lost otherwise if brihidarth maurya would be there he would had been easily defeated, if you are attacking piyushmitra shunga just on the basis of this then remember your whole haryanka dynasty kings (which was buddhist ) were made by killing their respective father ajatshtru killed bimbisara ajatshatru was killed by udayin udayin was killed by aniruddha aniruddha was killed by munda munda was killed by nagdashak why you are not pointing this one just because they were buddhist and piyushmitra shunga was vedic, such hatred
They belong to brahmin community if it is mentioned then why it is not true no sense🤡same applies to those sources who claim satvahan to be buddhist they are also not true naneghat caves inscription proove satvahan kings hindu even the name in itself is derived from hinduism
@@rishabhyadav6705satavahanas are saivas bro
Would prefer if you speak in Hindi -- ur audience is Indian. Why English, especially when ur Hindi is mellifluos.
Satavahanas are of Telugu heritage. They just expanded their rule in Maharashtra.
There's no such thing as marati when Satavahanas were ruling. There are many pure Telugu words used in inscriptions.
The king name Pulumavi is a pure Telugu name.
Even Ashoka, Greek traveller & puranas mentioned them as Andhra Satavahanas.
They ruled from present day Andhra, Amaravati which we again made it as capital of Andhra now.
Jainism is so prevalent in amaravati because of their capital there.
These maharashtrians claiming Satavahanas as marati is like Telugus claiming chalukyas as Telugu origin just because they ruled from Andhra & tamils claiming Nayakars as tamils.
One thing is for sure, today Telugus became the owners of half land of South India even after many invasions & Dynasties just because we had big forefathers like Satavahanas earlier.
This can't be possible if we didn't have powerful kingdoms earlier
I think the telegu's being landowner argument is quite good. But what about marathis saying that there are plenty of Marathi inscriptions and works on Marathi as well.
Just to make it clear, I am neither telegu not Marathi. I'm Bihari. This debate has no personal value for me. I'm just curious.
@@randomturd1415
Thanks for understanding. Kannada incriptions are found in Maharashtra, tamil inscriptions are found in Andhra, Telugu inscriptions are found in Tamil Nadu.
This inscriptions doesn't mean they belong to the land they were found.
Take the great Mauryan Empire that started in Bihar. Inscriptions related to mourya Empire are found in Pakistan & Afghanistan too. That doesn't mean Mouryan Empire belongs to those countries.
It's Bihar Empire. Unfortunately the once the great Bihar now became a laughing stock now because of religious fanaticism. Hope things change soon.
It's the same with Satavahanas, it's said that Telugus history started from Andhra Satavahanas itself.
Even Greek traveller Megasthanes (350 - 290 BCE) mentions about Andhra saying a powerful tribe named "Andarae", whose king maintained an army of 100,000 infantry, 2,000 cavalry and 1,000 elephants.
Andhra Satavahanas started the first South Indian Empire.
Was the first to start south East Asian trade in South India
Was the first to start coinage with the ruler's face on it.
Today Ugadi is celebrated on such a scale in Maharashtra, Andhra, Telangana & Karnataka all because of Andhra Satavahanas only.
@@pokemonitishere202Nice Historical fallacy filled with modern day petty regionalism. Satavahanas were most probably Brahman origin who spoke Sanskrit. Prakrit was their lingua franca. It was ruled by neither Telugu nor Marathi speakers. Marathi did not even exist back then. Neither there was Bihar back then.
@@bhanupratap1063 Following ans will help understand Satvahanas history. The source of the ans is given in the end for the information used in the ans is from a book; the name given at the end of the ans by the User. As follows:-
The Satavahana dynasty is the first known historical dynasty of Maharashtra.
The Puranas call this dynasty Andhra. So all early historians such as R. G. Bhandarkar, Bühler, Rapson and Vincent Smith believed that the Satavahanas had their original home in the Andhra country.
But if this view is accepted, we shall have to suppose that within one or two generations after their rise in Andhra they spread their power as far west as Konkan on the Western coast. This appears extremely incredible.
The early inscriptions and coins of this family have been found not in Andhra but in Western Maharashtra including Konkan.
It is interesting to note that the Puranas nowhere describe the dynasty as Satavahana and inscriptions nowhere name it as Andhra. How are we to explain this paradox?
K. Gopalachari advances an ingenious theory in this connection:
"He suggests that the Satavahanas were really Andhras by ethnical extraction. Under Ashoka, we find a Greek governor, probably a native of Kamboja, appointed to rule over Kathiavad. In the same way some scions of the extinct Andhra dynasty may have been appointed as governors or district officers to rule in Maharashtra. Later on when Ashoka’s empire began to decay, Simuka, who was one of the Andhra officers governing at Pratisthana, declared independence and founded a new dynasty. Puranas knew this real origin of Simuka and have given the correct name to his house."
This theory is ingenious, but not convincing. We have similar parallels in later history.
The Calukyas and Rashtrakutas established branches of their dynasties in Andhradesa and Gujarat; the Senas from Karnataka established a dynasty in Bengal. There is, therefore, nothing impossible in one of the Andhra officers of Ashoka having established a house in Maharashtra.
But why should the real name of the dynasty not occur even in a single official record issued by it?
The Calukyas of Vengi and the Rashtrakutas of Gujarat always called themselves as scions of the Calukya or the Rastrakuta family. They never use any other name.
Why then should the Satavahanas have been so careful as to eschew their original name from all their official records?
Surely, there was no provincialism running riot in those days.
A name which was so carefully boycotted by the dynasty from all its official records is not likely to be known to the Puranic writers who probably hailed from the distant Gangetic plain.
The only probable explanation of the fact of the Puranas describing the Satavahanas as Andhras, would appear to be the assumption that they knew only of the later history of the dynasty, when the centre of its power was shifted to Andhradesa.
The inscriptions of Ashoka and the account of Megasthenes show that the modern Andhradesa was known by that name in the 3rd century B.C. The Mayidavolu plates prove that the nomenclature continued down to the 4th century A.D. for it refers to a district in Andhrapatha. A power which was ruling over the territory in c. 200 A.D. was naturally described as Andhra by the Puranas.
The nomenclature has no connection with the Andhaka subdivision of the Yadavas, who had no connection with the Satavahanas. Nor does it seem to be connected with the rivulet Andhra flowing near Karli.
The dynastic lists in the Puranas appear to have been prepared in circa A. D. 320 for they do not contain any reference to later dynasties or kings.
We have seen above that the Satavahanas fell in circa A. D. 230. At that time, the centre of Satavahana power was in Andhra.
An inscription of Gautamiputra Vijaya Satakarni, one of the later kings of the dynasty has been found at Nagarjunakond in the Andhra country. It shows that he had founded a city named Vijayapuri (now known as Nagarjunakond) which he made his capital.
His coins have not been found anywhere in Western Maharashtra.
The latter country was then under the rule of Chutukula Satakarni. It is not, therefore surprising that the dynastic lists in the Puranas which were prepared in this later period call the Satavahanas as Andhras.
No other evidence shows that they originally hailed from the Andhra country.
R. G. Bhandarkar read Dhanakajaka in a Násik Cave inscription and on the basis of it, inferred that the early Sätavahanas had their cap toital at the place now known as Dharanikot in Andhra but as Historian Senart has shown, the correct reading there is Benākajaka, which as we have shown elsewhereis the region round Pauni on the bank of the Vená (or the Vainganga) in the Bhandara District of Vidarbha.
Historian Vincent Smith identified the capital of the Satavahanas with Srikakulam in the Andhra Pradesh but the evidences for it is as late as the eleventh century A. D. So it is not reliable.
There are several inscriptions connected with the Great Stüpa at Amaravati in Andhra but none of them mentions any early Satvahana king.
On the other hand, we get references to other rulers of Andhra in the records of the early period. For instance, we have in an inscription from Bhattiprolu in Andhra mentions of King Kubiraka who on the evidence of palacography seems to have flourished not long after Ashoka.
He was not of the Satavahana family. In the Hathigumpha inscription King Kharavela who flourished in circa 150 to 135 B.C. is said to have devastated the city of Pithunda and defeated the confederacy of Tramira kings.
If the Satavahanas had been ruling in Andhra in that period , he would have mentioned them in that connection. He does not do so. So it is quite certain that the early Satavahanas were not ruling in the Godavari - Krishna region in that age.
Historian V. S. Sukthankar published an inscription of the Satavahana king Pulumavi found at Macdoni in the Bellari District of Karnataka.
It mentioned Satavaahanihara (the territorial division of the Satavahanas), from which he inferred that the Satavahanas originally hailed from that region.
But the inference does not seem valid, for that district has no other antiquities of the Satavahana age.
Dr. V. S. Sukhtankar has advanced the theory that the home of the Satavahanas should be located in Bellary district, where a Satavahana record was discovered at Myakadoni, recording the construction of a tank in the reign of Sri Pulumavi.
This record describes the tank as situated in Satavahani-hara and it is possible to argue that the Bellary district happened to be so called because it was the original ahara or district of the Satavahanas.
This argument considered by itself, is not without some force. But we have to note that hardly any early Satavahana antiquities have been found in Bellary district or its neighbourhood. And it is quite possible to explain the origin of the term Satavahani-hara for Bellary by another assumption.
The inscription refers itself to the reign of Pulumavi, This Pulumavi was the last king of the Satavahana dynasty. When his power spread to that region at the end of the Satavahana period, it seems to have been so designated in order to distinguish it from other neighbouring territories.
We have another similar territorial designation, viz Sätähanirattha mentioned in the later Hirahadagalli plates of the Pallava king Siva Skandavarman.
During the British rule, it was customary to describe Satara as a British district as distinguished from its neighbour Kolhapur, which was under an Indian ruler. Satara however was not under the British from early times.
