Śoṇāśva · śoṇa-aśva, “he of the red horses”

Son of Rājādhideva

In the Brahma Purāṇa’s account of the line of Yadu, Bhajamāna‘s son was Vidūratha, chief among chariot-warriors, and his son was the hero Rājādhideva. Rājādhideva’s sons were Datta, Atidatta, Śoṇāśva, Śvetavāhana, Śamī, Daṇḍaśarma, Dantaśatru and Śatrujit, and his daughters were Śravaṇā and Śravishṭhā. The line went on through Śamī, whose son was Pratikshatra.
