An Entity of Type: ethnic group, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Arjunayana, Arjunavana, Arjunavayana or Arjunayanaka was an ancient republican people located in Punjab or north-eastern Rajasthan. They emerged as a political power during the Shunga period (c. 185 – c. 73 BCE). In the Allahabad Pillar Inscription of Samudragupta (c. 335 – c. 380 CE), the Arjunayanas figure among the autonomous political communities bordering on the Gupta Empire who accepted the overlordship of Samudragupta. They are also mentioned in Bṛhat Saṃhitā of Varahamihira (6th century CE). According to Dr Buddha Prakash, the Arjunayanas are mentioned as Prajjunakas in Kautiliya's text Arthashastra which also places them in the northern division of India. Vincent Smith locates their republic in Alwar and Bharatpur states now in Rajasthan, a view which has been rejected by R. C. Ma

  • Ardžunájanové byl starověký kmen v severní Indii v oblasti Mathury. O tomto kmeni se zmiňuje Čánakja ve svém díle Arthašástra. Název kmene je patrně odvozen od Ardžuny, védského hrdiny a jednoho z hlavních postav indického eposu Mahábhárata. Ardžunájanové byli spojenci sousedního kmene Jaudhéjevů a společně s nimi si pravděpodobně někdy v 1. století př. n. l. vybojovali nad Indo-řeckým královstvím nezávislost. V průběhu 5. století byli Ardžunájové i Jaudhéjevové poraženi guptovským králem Samudraguptou a jejich území bylo začleněno do říše Guptů, která byla tehdy na vrcholu svého rozmachu. (cs)
