Cant we accept the theory of puranas of 29 kings ,which was
Corraberated by all puranas not one in same pattern except minor
Differences, now and then we get coins of some new rulers .
There are instances that only numismatic evidence which give
us proofssome unknown dynasties and kings so refute in this
point with some scholars.
Being numismatist I have seen lot of instances like this ,last
Decade,We have not seen many chera coins now we have
seeing many new varietiesOf chera coins.Hope some day
we will get a big hoard of coins of rulers with unknown
kings of satavanahas in tune with Puranas?
The Puranas like Matsya, Vayu, Vishnu, Bhagvata and Brahmanda
provide important, if confusing, data for the reconstruction of the
Satavahana history. Literary works like Brihatkatha of Gunadya,
Gathasaptasati of Hala, or Lilavati yield useful information on the
period. Foreign literary sources like the ‘Indica’ of Megastanese,
Pliny’s ‘Natural History’,
The study of the Satavahana coins, particularly the Jogalthambi
hoard of Nahapana’s coins, most of them restruck by Gautamiputra
Satakarni, can help the historian of the period. The Satavahana
inscriptions, all of them inscribed on stone, provide valuable data
for the reconstruction of their history
