Vakataka Dynasty
The Satavahanas in peninsular India were succeeded by the Vakatakas (local power) who ruled the Deccan for more than two and a half centuries. The Vakatakas were the contemporaries of the Guptas in northern India. In the Puranas, the Vakatakas are referred to as the Vindhyakas. The Vakatakas belonged to the Vishnuvriddha gotra of the Brahmanas and performed numerous Vedic sacrifices. A large number of copperplate land grant charters issued by the Vakatakas to the Brahmans have helped in reconstructing their history. They were Brahmins and promoted Brahmanism, however, they also patronised Buddhism. Culturally, the Vakataka kingdom became a channel for transmitting Brahmanical ideas and social institutions to the south. The Vakatakas entered into matrimonial alliances with the Guptas, the Nagas of Padmavati, the Kadambas of Karnataka and the Vishnukundins of Andhra. The Vakatakas patronised art, culture and literature. Their legacy in terms of public works and monuments have made significant contributions to Indian culture.
Under the patronage of the Vakataka king, Harisena, the rock-cut Buddhist Viharas and Chaityas of the Ajanta caves (World Heritage Site) were built. Ajanta cave numbers ⅩⅥ, ⅩⅦ, ⅩⅨ are the best examples of Vakataka excellence in the field of painting, in particular the painting titled Mahabhinishkramana. Vakataka kings, Pravarasena Ⅱ (author of the Setubandhakavya) and Sarvasena (author of Harivijaya) were exemplary poets in Prakrit. During their rule, Vaidharbhariti was a style developed in Sanskrit which was praised by poets of the likes of Kalidasa, Dandin and Banabhatta.
