Her son was \*\*Jantū\*\*, and being pleased with him, the king promised her a boon. She claimed the kingdom for her son, and this was the reason for the exile of the elder children.⁴ The \*Mahāvamsa\*⁵ mentions among Okkāka's descendants, \*\*Nipuṇa\*\*, \*\*Candimā\*\*, \*\*Candamukha\*\*, \*\*Sivisañjaya\*\*, \*\*Vessantara\*\*, \*\*Jāli\*\*, \*\*Sīhavāhana\*\* and \*\*Sīhassara\*\*. The last named had eighty-four thousand descendants, the last of whom was \*\*Jayasena\*\*. His son \*\*Sīhahanu\*\* was the grandfather of the Buddha. The \*Dīpavamsa\*⁶ list resembles this very closely. - [Previous: v1.c11.16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c11.16) - [Next: v1.c11.18](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c11.18) - [Up: v1.c11](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c11) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c11.17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c11.17) · Pramāṇa
