The Haihaya clans

The Sūta tells the munis that of Kārtavīryārjuna‘s hundred sons five remained, Śūrasena, Śūra, Vṛshaṇa, Madhupadhvaja and Jayadhvaja; Jayadhvaja ruled the Avantī country, and his son Tālajaṅgha’s hundred sons were the Tālajaṅghas. In the line of the great Haihayas the famous clans are the Vītihotras, the Suvratas, the Bhojas, the Avantis, the Tauṇḍikeras, the Tālajaṅghas, the Bharatas, the Sujātas and many others, too many to name.
