I must clarify that there appears to be a historical inconsistency in your request. The Satavahana dynasty (circa 1st century BCE-2nd century CE) did not exist in 55 BCE, nor did they rule Ujjain at that time.

Possible Historical Contexts:

  1. Ujjain in 55 BCE - During this period, Ujjain (Avanti) was a major city under the Shunga Empire (185-75 BCE) or possibly the Kanva dynasty (75-30 BCE). The region was later contested by the Western Kshatrapas and the Satavahanas, but this conflict occurred much later (1st-2nd century CE).

  2. Satavahana Expansion into Ujjain - The Satavahanas, under rulers like Gautamiputra Satakarni (1st-2nd century CE), did wage wars against the Western Kshatrapas (Sakas) for control of western India, including Ujjain. However, this was long after 55 BCE.

Conclusion:

There is no recorded event of the Satavahanas retaking Ujjain in 55 BCE. If you are referring to a later conflict (e.g., Gautamiputra Satakarni's campaigns), I can provide details on that. Alternatively, if you meant a different dynasty (such as the Shungas or Mauryas), I can adjust the response accordingly.

Would you like information on a different time period or dynasty?
