Pṛthulāksha is a king of the Aṅga line, the son of Caturaṅga and the father of Campa, after whom the city Campāpurī is named.
His line
Sūta tells the munis the kings of the Aṅga line. Citraratha‘s son was Daśaratha, famed as Lomapāda, whose daughter was Śāntā. By the grace of Ṛshyaśṛṅga, Śāntā’s husband, a son named Caturaṅga was born to Lomapāda to uphold the line. Caturaṅga’s son was Pṛthulāksha, and Pṛthulāksha’s son was Campa. Campa’s capital was Campāpurī; before him the city was called Mālinī. To Campa, by the grace of Pūrṇabhadra, Haryaṅga was born, and Ṛshyaśṛṅga by his mantras brought Indra‘s elephant Airāvata down to earth to be Haryaṅga’s elephant.
All the kings of the Aṅga line, Sūta says, were true to their vows, great-souled, rich in progeny and great chariot-warriors.
