Which of the following ganarajyas is not mentioned in the Allahabad Pillar inscription of the Gupta King Samudragupta ?
Audumbara
Audumbara option is correct.
Lines 22—23 of the Allahabad Pillar prashasti of Samudragupta, composed by Harishena, catalogue the tribal republics (ganarajyas or pratyanta-ganas) that submitted to the Gupta emperor by paying tribute, offering obeisance and carrying out his orders. The list names the Malavas, Arjunayanas, Yaudheyas, Madrakas, Abhiras, Prarjunas, Sanakanikas, Kakas, Kharaparikas and others of the frontier regions of Rajasthan, Punjab and Central India.
The Audumbaras were an ancient ganarajya of the upper Beas valley (Pathankot—Kangra region), well attested by their coinage of the 2nd—1st century BCE, but by Samudragupta’s time (mid-4th century CE) they had ceased to be a distinct political entity and do not figure in his conquest list.
Yaudheya, Arjunayana and Prarjuna are all explicitly named in the prashasti, leaving the Audumbaras as the odd tribe out.
