161 Chatushparṇa (Chaturapana) Vāsishtīputra II, Śātakarṇi; probably brother and successor of Vāsishtīputra Puḷumāyi, and, according to numismatic evidence, the father of Yajñaśrī Gautamīputra II. Contemporary, apparently, with Rudradāman, perhaps his son-in-law, being probably the Śātakarṇi whom the latter claims to have twice conquered, but spared—according to one interpretation of the passage—“on account of his near relationship to himself.” A Nānāghāṭ inscription of Chatushparṇa is dated in his thirteenth year.—Refs. under B.C. 180.
