The *Mahābhārata* speaks also of other Chedi kings like Damaghosha, his son Śiśupāla Sunītha and his sons Dhṛishṭaketu and Śarabha who reigned about the time of the Bhārata war. But the *Jātaka* and epic accounts of the early kings of Chedi are essentially legendary and, in the absence of more reliable evidence, cannot be accepted as genuine history.
