rudrasena ii (380–385) is said to have married prabhavatigupta, the daughter of the gupta king chandragupta ii (375-413/15). rudrasena ii died fortuitously after a very short reign in 385 ce, following which prabhavatigupta (385 - 405) ruled as a regent on behalf of her two sons, divakarasena and damodarasena (pravarasena ii) for 20 years. during this period the vakataka realm was practically a part of the gupta empire. many historians refer to this period as the vakataka-gupta age. while this has been widely accepted more than 30 years ago, this line of argument has no proper evidence. prabhavati gupta's inscription mentions about one "deva gupta" who is her father and the historians equated him with chandra gupta ii. however, there is no other source to prove that deva gupta is really chandra gupta ii. this is questionable more since the dating of vakatakas is more or less established while that of guptas is sometimes predated to that of greek invasion of alexander by the indeginists.
