Answer:

C. Gupta

Read Explanation:

  • Gupta dynasty was a major power in Northern India, not South India.

  • Gupta dynasty, rulers of the Magadha (now Bihar) state in northeastern India.

  • They maintained an empire over northern and parts of central and western India from the early 4th to the late 6th century ce.

  • Historians once regarded the Gupta period as the classical age of India—during which the norms of Indian literature, art, architecture, and philosophy were established—but many of those assumptions have been challenged by more extensive studies of Indian society and culture between the Mauryan and Gupta periods.

  • Among the products traditionally thought to be from the Gupta era were the decimal system of notation, the great Sanskrit epics, and Hindu art, along with contributions to the sciences of astronomy, mathematics, and metallurgy.
