Nahapana's defeat at the hands of Gautamiputra Satakarni is attested by which of the following coin-hoards ?

  • A.Erakina
  • B.Nasik
  • C.Qunduz
  • D.Ujjayini

Answer: B

Gautamiputra Satakarni's defeat of the Kshaharata ruler Nahapana is attested by the hoard of coins found at Jogaltembhi near Nasik, in which Nahapana's coins are restruck by Gautamiputra. This is why the Nasik hoard is cited as proof.

The other names are not the findspots of this hoard: Qunduz is in Afghanistan, Ujjayini is in Malwa, and the name Erakina does not mark a hoard that confirms this event.
