v2.c14.12
The Yādavas profess to be descended from Yadu, a Purāṇic hero, and claim that their ancestors first lived at Mathurā and then migrated to Dvārakavatī or Dvārakā in Kathiawar. This belief of theirs is in perfect accordance with Purāṇic tradition, but we need not examine its historical accuracy, for it refers to times for which no records exist and has hardly any bearing on the history of the dynasty during our period.
