Vakataka dynasty

Indian ruling house that originated in the central Deccan in the mid-3rd century AD. The Vakataka empire is believed to have extended from Malwa and Gujarat in the north to the Tungabhadra in the south and to have spanned the peninsula from west to east. In the 4th century the Vakatakas were allied by marriage to the Gupta dynasty, and Gupta cultural influence was significant. The Vakatakas are noted for having encouraged arts and letters.
