Titikṣu’s lineage is given by the same nine Puranas.⁵ All agree substantially, except that the Brahmāṇḍa has lost all after Dharmaratha in a great lacuna, the Vāyu omits from Satyaratha to Campa, the Viṣṇu, Garuḍa and Bhāgavata omit Jayadratha’s descendants, and the Brahma and Agni omit Vijaya and his line. The best accounts are in the Matsya and Harivaṃśa. This ‘Kingdom in the East’ was divided among Bali’s five sons into five kingdoms, Aṅga, Vaṅga, Kaliṅga, Puṇḍra and Suhma. He was quite distinct from Bali son of Virocana, the Daitya (p. 64). This genealogy with the Aṅga line is given in the Table in chapter XII.
