The ten Dasāra kings are mentioned as the sons of Aṇḍagavahṇi; Samuddavijaya was the chief amongst all (see Aṇḍagavahṇi). It is said that first they were reigning in Mathurā but from fear of Jarāsandha, migrated to Bāravai and began to rule there.⁴⁷ It is mentioned that the description of the Dasāra kings was given in the fourth chapter of the *Bandhadasā*, which is now lost.⁴⁸
