GAUTAMIPUTRA SATAKARNI — SATAVAHANA DYNASTY

Reign: 106–130 AD

Gautamiputra Satakarni was described as Ekabrahman in the Nasik and Naneghat inscriptions. The Nasik inscription also gives him the title Kshatriyadarpa Mardana — Destroyer of the Pride of Kshatriyas.

He was known as the destroyer of the Sakas, Pahlavas and Yavanas and the uprooter of the Kshaharatas.

He defeated Nahapana and recovered territories earlier lost to the Western Kshatrapas. His rule extended from Malwa and Saurashtra to the Krishna River, and from Konkan to Vidarbha.

He patronised Brahmanism while also supporting Buddhism. The Karle inscription records his grant of a village to Buddhist monks.

According to the Junagadh inscription of Rudradaman I, he was defeated by Rudradaman I.
