MAHATALAVARASA TELUGU WORDS OF PRE STAVAHANA KINGS
The history of Satavahana dynasty start from Karimanagar,Adilabad region.
Before them the MahatalavarasRuled this region, we come across coins of
Mahatalavara and other pre –Satavahana rulers, But lack of
Script on coins make us puzzled about their history. But their
style of design on coins gives us their Independent style of coin minting than
north India, gives us clue about their existence before satavahana
dynasty. Recent discovery of fort at near water falls in Ichoda mandal
gives us proof about that.The cobbled
pathwayfortifications show us the importance of this fort ,at we may
assume it was the capital of satavahana dynasty The pottery with
several circles gives us it is of new type as similar seals are excavated in Egypt
also, which show us the satavahana maritime trade. Early period of satavahana
trade flourished with Egypt
sumeria,hittitites,which made south India the hub of trade,we exported spices
and got in exchange gold. Diamond mines were famous in whole world,
Queens were given important place in satavahana dynasty
Queen Naganika,wife of satakarni was perhaps the first queen found on
incriptions.,Even Nanaghat,Nasik incriptions give details of satavahana
rulers.Satavahana kings were first to issue the silver coins with portrait of king face.
They equally gave donations to Buddhist,Jain,Brahmains.
Conducted Ashwamedha yagnamto show their strength. They ruled whole of
telangana,Andhra,Karnataka,konkan,maharshatra,vidraba,gone
upto Gujarat,Vidisha in north and still further. South Indian history was
given little importance sofar, specially satavahana period for lack of
encouragement and was neglected. We were first to trade with outside world,
