Hāla
Hāla (r. 20-24 CE) was a Satavahana king. He is mentionned in the Puranas as a member of the Satavahana dynasty.
Hāla is famous for compiling the collection of Maharashtri Prakrit poems known as the Gaha Sattasai (Sanskrit: Gāthā Saptashatī), although from linguistic evidence it seems that the work now extant must have been re-edited in the succeeding century or two.
The Lilavati describes his marriage with a Ceylonese Princess.
