Here the Greek work Charition mime establishes Kannada uses the -ke, -ge suffixes since antiquity.
"Bere konzoi madu patrakke hake".
This undoubtedly makes the Satavaha coins Old Telungu. Hala in his work also has many Old Telungu words. Satavahanas were Andhras, proved! :)
@telungunayaka telugu started debeloping only after Kannada dynasties
In all the North Sravidian languages, From Brahui to Kui, similarity with Kannada words is very high
Even in greek, persian, pakkit, sanskrt works Kannada words have been identified continuously
Fact Check :
This mints of Telugu Chodas (c. 11th – 14th CE) of Vikramasimhapuri (Nellore) use the Telugu “Shri” evolved from Bhattiprolu Brahmi and was common to Telugu-Kannada script and is not a Kannada exclusive character.
Also you are just copy pasting the text mentioned wrongly on the site as is - “of Bhujabala”.
Actually Bhujabala (One with strong arms) was a Royal Title (Biruda)of the Telugu Choda kings and not an actual name.
Tikka I (Bhujabala Chodatikka) used this title.

Kui is not north Dravidian, it is SCDr. The archaicness of Telungu is evident from grammar systems and masculine, non-masculine suffixes used to crack IVC script by Iravatham Mahadevan. Kannada is similar to Tamizh also, so what?

@Facts_Kan Then admit you're using Bhattiprolu script, makes no sense. Scrips keep evolving and the name we attach to them are about how we categorise. Check Keesaragutta inscription even the stone cutters knew how to write meaning more inscriptions will be uncovered soon hopefully.
Bhattiprolu Brahmi was modified to write a Dravidian language (Telungu). You guys didn't modify Ashokan Brahmi until later and now twisting history. What script do you think Satavahanas used, when they had Dhanyakataka and you think Ikshvakus with Vijayapuri were illiterate!? 🤣
brahmi went to southern parts via KA
so Kannada-brahmi evolved first than other brahmis
Kannada brahmi moified continuously to modern Kannada script,
added vowels, consonents, rephas (shakaTa, Rra-La), vottAksharas that were used even by sasnkrt
tamil hardly changed in course of time,
and follow same early brahmi rules
while telugu continues to use old-Kananda
with minor modifications
@MrLeoX10918@PermadiDeva Rei sule magne if Vijayanagara using Telungu does not make it Telungu then similalry Satavahanas using Prakrit doesn't deny their roots. Beggar fellows Kundigays.
@MrLeoX10918@barath9500@PermadiDeva Imperial language =/= ethnicity Kalabhras never used Kannada but they still are Kannadigas, even before Kadambas you think Kannadigas did not exist? SImilarly Telungu also Satavahana Ikshvaku Vishnukundina etc
