Even the Bhāgavata, avowedly a brahmanic Purana, acknowledges the origin of the Urukṣayas, Kapis, Gārgyas, Priyamedhas and Maudgalyas from the Paurava dynasty,² as will be shown. That brahmans sprang from this dynasty is alluded to in other passages.³ - [Previous: c28.15](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.pargiter-1922.c28.15) - [Next: c28.17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.pargiter-1922.c28.17) - [Up: c28](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.pargiter-1922.c28) ## Cites (1) - [Bhāgavatapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.bhagavata) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.pargiter-1922.c28.16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.pargiter-1922.c28.16) · Pramāṇa
