The Nagas of Narwar (also known as the Naga Dynasty) were an ancient royal dynasty in north-central India that flourished roughly from 200 to 340 CE.

Territory and Capitals

• Major Centers: They ruled over strategic regions including Padmavati (modern Pawaya in Madhya Pradesh), Kantipuri (Kutwar), Mathura, and Vidisha.

• Puranic References: Ancient Hindu texts like the Vayu, Brahmanda, and Vishnu Puranas mention multiple Naga kings ruling across Padmavati, Kantipuri, and Mathura.

History and Decline

• Trade: During their peak, they participated in active trade between India and the Roman Empire, dealing in spices, luxury fabrics, and gold.

• Fall to the Guptas: The dynasty was eventually eclipsed by the rising Gupta Empire.

• Ganapati Naga: Their last prominent king, Ganapati Naga, is recorded on the Allahabad Pillar inscription as paying tribute or submitting to the Gupta emperor Samudragupta. Other known rulers include figures like Deva Naga and Bhima Naga.

Coinage

• Denominations: They issued small bronze and copper coins under the kakini currency system (including ⅛, ¼, ½, and 1 kakini), typically measuring about 5 to 15 mm in size.

• Design Motifs:

• Obverse: Usually features a humped bull standing left within a dotted circle.

• Reverse: Features wheels, peacocks, tridents, or Brahmi script inscriptions naming the ruler (such as Maharaja Shri Ganendra).
