Satavahanas (/ˌsɑːtəˈvɑːhənə/; Sādavāhana nai to Sātavāhana, IAST: Sātavāhana), jiske Andhras (also Andhra-bhṛtyas or Andhra-jatiyas) ke naam se Puranas me likha gais hae, puraana India ke ek raaj-kul rahaa. Aaj-kal ke scholars ii biswas kare hae ki Satavahana raj late 2nd century BCE me suruu bhas rahaa aur early 3rd century CE talak chalaa rahaa, lekin kuchh log ii raajya ke suruuwat ke 3rd century BCE bataawe hae, jon Puranas me likha hae, lekin iske koi archaeological sabuut nai hae. Satavahana samrajya me abhi ke Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, aur Maharashtra rahaa. Kuchh-kuchh dafe uu log ke raj ke abhi ke Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, aur Karnataka talak barrhaawa gais rahaa. Ii raaj-kul ke dher dafe dher raajdhani rahaa, jisme Pratishthana (Paithan) and Amaravati (Dharanikota) rahaa.

Ii sab bahas regionalism ke context me bhais rahaa, jisme aaj ke Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka aur Telangana iske aapan original homeland of the Satavahanas ke claim karin hae.[11]

"The use of Prakrit in Ashokan inscriptions and its continuance under the Satavahanas as the official language raised Maharashtri Prakrit from a common local dialect to the stature of a literary idiom. The most important work is Satasati or Gathasaptasati-an anthology of 700 erotic verses in Maharashtri Prakrit and in the Arya metre. Gunadhya's Brihatkatha (Great Romance) probably belonged to this period."
