Answer: Dantidurga

Dantivarman or Dantidurga (735 – 756) was the founder of the Rashtrakutas dynasty. The Rashtrakutas believed themselves Satyaki’s descendants. On the question of their source, historians vary. It is clear from the inscriptions of a few Chalukya kings that they’re the Chalukyas’ vassals. The Rashtrakutas were of Kannada origin and Kannada was their mother tongue.
