Naga Dynasty, Nagas of Padmavati (Hindi: नाग) (210 – 340 AD.) was an ancient royal family of central, India that ruled Vidisha, Padmavati, Kantipur and Mathura. The Naga kings are best known for their coins. Several thousands of them have been found. Cunningham identified Padmavati with present Narwar near Gwalior. M B Garde carried out excavations at Pawaya in 1924-25, 1933–34 and 1941. He identifies Pawaya with ancient Padmavati rejecting Cunningham’s identification with Narwar. Coins of several Naga kings, who have been dated between 210-340 AD, have been found at Pawaya.
