Gautamiputra Satakarni titled Rajaraja and Maharaja is related to which of the following dynasties?

Question

Accepted Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

- Gautamiputra Satakarni is a well-documented ruler of the Satavahana (Andhra) dynasty, attested by inscriptions (e.g., the Nāṣik and other epigraphs) and coinage.
- Contemporary records and Puranic lists place him among the Satavahana kings; he is known to have borne sovereign titles such as "Rajaraja" and "Maharaja".
- Chronology and historical actions (he fought Saka and Pahlava forces) fit the Satavahana context around $c.\ 1^{st}	ext{–}2^{nd}$ century CE, not the Shunga, Pandya, or Shaka dynasties.

Therefore the correct choice is (3) Satavahana.
