Gautamiputra Satakarni

Gautamiputra Satakarni (IAST gautamīputra śatakarṇi) was a ruler of the Satavahana Empire. The exact date of Gautamiputra's reign is uncertain. His reign is dated variously: 86-110 CE, c. 103-127 CE, or 106-130 CE.

Achievement

We know about him from an inscription composed by his mother, Gautami Balashri.

Gautamiputra Satakarni, often acknowledged by historians as the greatest of the Satavahana rulers, took to the throne after his father. Satakarni had earlier expanded the Satavahana Empire and gained considerable prosperity due to his two Ashwamedha sacrifices. When Gautamiputra ascended the throne, the Satavahana Empire was loosely attached and was facing the threats of foreign invasions from Sakas and Yavanas. Gautamiputra defeated the Yavanas, Sakas, and Palavas and re-established the ancient glory of the Satavahanas. The Shaka rulers Nahapana and Ushavadata were ultimately defeated by the powerful Satavahana king Gautamiputra Satakarni. Gautamiputra drove the Sakas from Malwa and Western Maharashtra, forcing Nahapana west to Gujarat. Gautamiputra restruck many of Nahapana's coins. He overthrew Nahapana and restruck a large number of Ksaharata coins of the Jogalthembi hoard.
