Satavahanas: The Deccan's First Empire Builders | Tales & Trails

Satvahana's origin is Maharashtra only because from the very beginning from Simuka it's territory was within Maharashtra. All inscriptions found in Maharashtra and very rare in Andhra pradesh. Puranas wrongly mentioned that Satvahanas were andhras because they were written very much after Satvahanas rule. Also Satvahanas coins mostly found in Maharashtra. Naganika was daughter of MAHARATHi Tranakrai (present day name tryambakrao)

[@pokemonitishere202]

@@sanjayp251 Bruh! Satavahanas are of Andhra heritage. They just expanded their rule in Maharashtra. There's no such thing as marari 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 mentioned them as Andhra Satavahanas. They ruled from present day Andhra, Amaravati which again made as capital of Andhra now. Don't claim others history as yours.

This is the really sad thing about our education system, we read a lot about Slave dynasty and Mughals but very less about Saatvahanas, Cholas, Cheras, Pandayas and many other great rulers of our country. We really need to revive and appreciate more our culture, traditions and rich heritage. There should be more info about Sangam era in our text books otherwise the crappy history text books will ruin our future.

[@shalivahana9650]

The available evidence tends to show that the home of the Satavahanas in Maharashtra rather than in Andhra province. The Jain tradition mentions Pratisthana or Paithan in Marathvada as the capital of the Satavahanas. Naneghat and Nasik are within about 200 miles to the west of Paithan and one can therefore well understand how the earliest Satavahana records are found inscribed at these places. It is not unlikely that some deity in the vicinity of Naneghat was the tutelary god of the Satavahanas, which induced them to have their statues and early records at that place. 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. More than 75 per cent. of the Satavahana epigraphs have been found in Maharashtra; this renders it extremely probable that their home lay somewhere in that province.

Even today, Telugus, Marathis, Kannadigas celebrate Hindu New Year on the same day - Ugadi/Gudhee Padwaa. Culture, food, traditions across the Deccan plateau is similar to each other even today. The Deccan plateau that comprises Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra/Telangana shared many empires Satvahana, Vakatakas, Chalukyas (Badami), Rashtrakutas, Chalukyas (Kalyani) until the advent of Islamic invasion from the north after 1296 CE. The Seuna Yadavas, a part of the Chalukyas, started promoting Marathi language in their official courts. Until then, Kannada and Sanskrit were the languages of the region. Many Kannada inscriptions have been found in present day Maharashtra. Marathi was first written in Kannada script, followed by MoDee script. Even the Maratha Empire used MoDee script. Devanagri was adopted as script in the 1950s after spineless Marathi politicians surrendered to Delhi. Even Gujarati refused to adopt Devanagri to preserve their separate identity. Sad to see Marathi people have lost their connection to beautiful MoDee script and don't know anything about the history of Pre-Maratha period.

@Adjective whatever might be the present intentions of Marathas But the three Deccan States Maharashtra Karnataka and Telangana and to some extent, parts of AP share common history. For two millennium They were under the reign of satavahanas rashtrakutas chalukyas bahmani Sultanate and finally under the Nizam . still people at the border areas maintain relations. people from Marathwada and Hyderabad Karnataka migrate more to Hyderabad than Mumbai or Bengaluru. For me The idea of South India being a separate nation is acceptable but it's not feasible. what if Karnataka does not agree with Tamilnadu policies. what if Kerala doesn't bear the Influence of other big states.

[@Youngmonk13]

@Adjective You know NOTHING about maharashtra. We hate no one. Marathas are the mixture of South Indian & north indian clans. Maharashtra is more influenced by SOUTH culturally and by NORTH linguistically. In my own village our main goddess is Yallamma. Maharashtrian identity began to bolden from just 1000 years ago. We don't have very long ancient history like south and eastern india.

The various Puranas state that the first king of the dynasty ruled for 23 years, and mention his name variously as Sishuka, Sindhuka, Chhismaka, Shipraka, etc. These are believed to be corrupted spellings of Simuka, .....According to the Puranas, the first Andhra king overthrew the Kanva rule. He is named as Balipuccha in some texts.[45] D. C. Sircar dated this event to c. 30 BCE, a theory supported by many other scholars.[42] The Matsya Purana mentions that the Andhra dynasty ruled for around 450 years. As the Satavahana rule ended in the early 3rd century, the beginning of their rule can be dated to the 3rd century BCE. The Indica of Megasthenes (350 - 290 BCE) mentions a powerful tribe named "Andarae", whose king maintained an army of 100,000 infantry, 2,000 cavalry and 1,000 elephants. If Andarae is identified with the Andhras, this can be considered additional evidence of Satavahana rule starting in the 3rd century BCE."....WIKI

No one make inscription in their origins, inscriptions and sthupas are symbol of their victories and lands they won through battles. Ao there is no awwww in satavahana being telugu dynasty made the sthupas in local languages in those locations.

If Andhradesa was the home of the Satavahanas, it is indeed strange that the early rulers of the dynasty like Simuka, Krishna and Satakarni I should have selected no place in their home province to inscribe records commemorating their glorious achievements; instead we find them selecting a far off and out of the way place like Naneghat in Western India to place their statues and inscribe their records commemorating great sacrifices and conquests. We have only three or four Satavahana records found in Andhra country, and these too belong to the rulers of the 2nd century A.D. This fact can hardly support the Andhra origin of the Satavahanas.

[@gangadharhiremath7306]

Before Shatavahanas,about 500 years earlier,Ashoka of Pataliputra Bihar has erected inscription stones as far as south K'taka and Andhra.The Rastrakutas of Malkhed K'taka have inscriptions in today's Madhya Pradesh in Kannada. Perhaps,the rulers used to erect such stone inscriptions far away from the capital to indicate their boundaries. Also remember that the present M'rastra was land of dravida speakers and prakrit/Sanskrit had just arrived in that area with migratory northern people(mostly brahmins)

@@gangadharhiremath7306 maharashtri prakrit is old form of Marathi. If you will read naneghat inscription they called themself mahrattis, Marathi is modern name of mahratti. Their race was mahratta kshtriya who were rathikas/rattas during Ashoka era. In fact Maharashtra name is itself satvahana legacy, Maha the title was speciality of Satvahanas. If you will see historical view, the Maharashtra Karnataka Andhra and Telangana were combined Maharashtrika. This is even proven through chalukya king pulkeshin's aihole stone inscription where he calls his kingdom trimaharashtrika, the 3 Maharashtras.

@@shivarya1752 OK.You are entitled to your views. Just tell us why Kannada place names are found up to Godavari and Vidarbha. What is Mara-Hatti? Shatavahanas calling themselves as Andhras is well documented.They reign in Andhra Pradesh is well established fact.(I am not Telugu,I am Kannadiga) From Shatavahanas(Telugu) to Chalukya-Rashtrakutas(Kannadigas)Maharashtra was ruled by Kannada or Telugu origin rulers.Why? Because present Maharashtra was essentially inhabited by Kannada-Telugu speaking population and Prakrit entered that land somewhere during the start of christian era.It gained official language status,as it was the language of migrant Brahmin population who controlled the literary world then.
