Note 14 — Chapter V · THE KSHATRAPAS (b.c. 70–a.d. 398.)

Reading edition

As mentioned above Kshaharáta is the family name of Nahapána’s dynasty. It is worthy of note that though Nahapána is not styled Kshatrapa in any of his coins the inscriptions of Ushavadáta at Násik repeatedly style him the Kshaharáta Kshatrapa Nahapána.14
