Answer 2

Answer:

In India as in various parts of the world, from the time of the Vedic culture of around 1,500 BC, the royal dynasties have always held the names of their fathers when a new king succeeded to the throne. But there was one imperial dynasty from the Indian sub-continent which took the names of their mothers for their royal title. This culture of matriname though not exactly a matrilineal line was quite an aberration in the scheme of things.

That ancient dynasty of India is now known as the Satavahanas who ruled a vast part of the Deccan, roughly corresponding to parts of modern south India today. The etymology of Deccan has come from the local word for south – Dakkhin. However, the Satavahanas took their mother’s name not exactly to honor or uphold a matriarchal society , but it is said that since their kings had numerous wives, the children were given the names of their mothers to identify him precisely in reference to his mother.

Origins of the Satavahana Dynasty

The Satavahanas were quite ancient and they were referred to as the Andhras in the Puranas of Hinduism . According to the Puranas, they succeeded an earlier imperial dynasty called Kanvas in the middle of the 1st century BC and ruled from their capital called ‘Pratisthana’ which is the modern town of Paithan in the Aurangabad district of Maharashtra state. But their origin can be traced further back.
