    Ghatotkacha (who ruled in the years 290–305 B.C.) was a king from which dynasty?

    Gupta Dynasty

    Correct Answer

    Kanva Dynasty

    Incorrect Answer

    Shunga Dynasty

    Incorrect Answer

    Maurya Dynasty

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    Ghatotkacha was a son of Gupta, the founder of the Gupta dynasty. Like his father, Ghatotkacha is not attested by his own inscriptions. The earliest description of him occurs in his grandson Samudragupta's Allahabad Pillar inscription, and is repeated verbatim in several later records of the dynasty. Earlier scholars attributed a gold coin and a clay seal to him, but these are now unanimously assigned to Ghatotkacha-gupta, who was a son or a younger brother of the 5th century Gupta ruler Kumaragupta I.
