<P> The rule of the Satavahanas in the area Sanchi during the 1st centuries BCE / CE is well attested by the finds of Satavahana copper coins in Vidisha, Ujjain and Eran in the name of Satakarni, as well as the Satakarni inscription on the Southern Gateway of Stupa No. 1 . </P> <P> Soon after, however, the region fell to the Scythian Western Satraps, possibly under Nahapana (120 CE), and then certainly under Rudradaman I (130 - 150 CE), as shown by his inscriptions in Junagadh . The Satavahanas probably regained the region for some time, but were again replaced by the Western Satraps in the mid-3rd century CE, during the rule of Rudrasena II (255 - 278 CE). The Western Satraps remained well into the 4th century as shown by the nearby Kanakerha inscription mentioning the construction of a well by the Saka chief and "righteous conqueror" Sridharavarman . Therefore, it seems that the Kushan Empire did not extend to the Sanchi area, and the few Kushan works of art found in Sanchi appear to have come from Mathura . </P> <P> The next rulers of the area were the Guptas . Inscriptions of a victorious Chandragupta II in the year 412 - 423 CE can be found on the railing near the Eastern Gateway of the Great Stupa . </P> <P> "The glorious Candragupta (II), (...) who proclaims in the world the good behaviour of the excellent people, namely, the dependents (of the king), and who has acquired banners of victory and fame in many battles" </P>
