The correct answer is: c) Satavahanas.
The Satavahanas were a dynasty that ruled over the Deccan region of India from the 2nd century BCE to the 3rd century CE. They were known for their maritime trade with the Roman Empire. The Periplus of the Erythraean Sea, a Greek text written in the 1st century CE, mentions that the Satavahanas traded with the Romans in goods such as spices, ivory, and pearls.
The Cholas were a dynasty that ruled over the Tamil Nadu region of India from the 9th to the 13th centuries CE. They were known for their maritime trade with Southeast Asia. The Pandyas were a dynasty that ruled over the Kerala region of India from the 3rd century BCE to the 13th century CE. They were known for their maritime trade with the Arabs.
The Periplus of the Erythraean Sea is a Greek text written in the 1st century CE that describes the trade routes and ports of the Indian Ocean. It does not mention the Satavahanas.
