| 抄録 | When Kumāraguptaʼs reign came to its end, around AD 450, a decade of internal
struggle followed before Skandagupta could ascend the throne unimpeded. Who was his
adversary? Earlier research was inclined to think of Pūrugupta while a more recent
theory builds on a severely truncated inscription from the Kevala Narasiṃha Temple at
Ramtek. This theory maintains that the opponent was Ghaṭotkacagupta, a paternal uncle
of both Skandagupta and Pūrugupta. The pictorial decoration of a silver plate is
interpreted as referring to the situation. Two male figures are taken for Ghaṭotkaca and
Skandagupta, a son and a grandson of Candragupta II, the first shown in the act of
crowning the younger one. The paper attempts at rehabilitating Ghaṭotkaca, who instead
of trying to usurp the throne, rather acted as a helper for Skandagupta in his fight against
Pūrugupta. This attempt requires to show that the currently preferred deductions drawn
from the Temple inscription need revision. Further literary evidence is adduced,
supported by new numismatic insights. |
