Kambalabarhisha is a king of the Yādava line of Bhajamāna, the learned son of Devāntaka and the father of Asamauja and Nāsameja. He is the second king of this name; the first was the son of Maruta.

The Purāṇa gives the line from Bhajamāna: his son Vidūratha, chief among chariot-warriors; his son the hero Rājādhideva; Rājādhideva’s son Śamī; his son Pratikshatra; his son Svayambhoja; and his son Bhadika. Bhadika’s sons, of fearsome valour, were Kṛtavarma the eldest, Śatadhanvā, Devāntaka, Narānta, Bhishak, Paitaruṇa, Sudānta, Atidānta, Nikāśya and Kāmadambhaka. Devāntaka’s son was the learned Kambalabarhisha, and his sons were Asamauja and Nāsameja. To Asamauja, who had no sons, Andhaka gave sons, Sudaṃshṭra, Sucāru and Kṛshṇa, and they became known as the Andhakas.
