Karnataka has an enthralling history. This state lying in the southern part of India has been under the rule of several dynasties that have shaped its history. It has been invaded by a number of rulers at different points of time in history. Due to the influence of various rulers and dynasties Karnataka became enriched with their distinctive culture and values.
In the ancient times Karnataka was known as Karunadu which means elevated land or high plateau. The history of Karnataka can be traced back to the prehistoric days.
Pre-history of Karnataka in brief
The pre-historic culture of Karnataka was very different from that of the northern part of India. During the pre-historic times the hand-axe culture was prevalent in Karnataka. This culture was similar to the pre-historic culture of Africa. The use of iron was known to the inhabitants of Karnataka even before 1200 B.C. This was far earlier than the time when the inhabitants of North India came to know about the use of iron.
Early history of Karnataka
The early rulers of Karnataka were from the northern parts of the country. During the 4th and 3rd century BCE parts of Karnataka was under the rule of the Maurya and Nanda Empire of North India. After the fall of the Mauryan Empire the Satavahana dynasty came to power in Karnataka around 3 BCE. They ruled over extensive parts of Northern Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra. Prakrit was their administrative language. Both Kannada and Telugu were found and evolved during their rule. The Satavahana dynasty ruled over Karnataka for almost 300 years.
The weakening of the Satavahana dynasty resulted in the Pallavas of Kanchi becoming the political power in Karnataka for a brief period of time. The domination of the Pallavas was brought to an end by indigenous dynasties, the Kadambas of Banavasi and the Gangas of Kolar. The ascent of the Kadamba dynasty and the Western Ganga Dynasty marked the starting point of Karnataka becoming an independent political entity.
Medieval History of Karnataka
Karnataka has been witness to the rise and fall of many dynasties and empires.
Kadamba Dynasty (325 AD–540 AD)
The Kadambas are regarded as the earliest royal dynasty of Karnataka. The dynasty was founded by Mayurasharma. This dynasty ruled over North Karnataka and the Konkan from Banavasi. The Kadambas were the first rulers to use Kannada language at the administrative level. They also minted gold coins and contributed to the architectural heritage of Karnataka.
The Kadambas ruled Karnataka for more than 200 years before Chalukyas overtook their empire. But some minor branches of the Kadamba dynasty continued to rule Hanagal, Goa and some other regions till 14th century.
