What happened to Krishna's descendants after destruction of Dwarka (my talk in Satyameva Jayate)

Part -2: What happened to the survivors of the Dwaraka- flood after the Vrishnis killed each other? The brief account of it given in the Epilogue of my book 'Mahabharata 3136 BCE' is narrated with additional inputs in the 2nd part of the Dwaraka series released by #SatyamevaJayate

hashtaSatyamevaJayate.The video begins with a description of the route taken by Arjuna leading the survivors of the flood to safe regions, as given in the MB. Satyaki-clan was settled on the banks of Saraswati and Kritavarman-s in Mehgrah. The Sindhu region was with the descendants of Jayadratha. I go on to show how the date matches with Early Harappan. The settlements along the Saraswati appear only during the Early Harappan coinciding with MB description of settling Dwaraka survivors in the same region. By 1300 BCE settlers dispersed. Development of Bet Dwaraka coincided with it.

A group of the later-day descendants of Dwaraka survivors (Satyaki- clan) moved from the Saraswati region to TN. They must have set up the Parthasarathy temple in Triplicane because that is the only temple having Satyaki in the Garbhagriha. The Utsva murti was made and worshiped by Vyasa as per the Sthala purana.
That the Harappan was peopled with the post- Mahabharata people is reinforced by the fact that all the top animal symbols in Harappan seals were the emblems of the losers of the MB war. Horse symbol is missing in the Harappan seals because no king of Bharat of those days had horse as his insignia. I also show how the Varaha symbol of the Harappan was seen among various dynasties including the Vijayanagara kings, bull by Pallavas who descended from Aswatthama and Nakula's Sarabha is seen in Gandaberunda of Mysore kings (now state symbol of Karnataka), but also found in Mesopotamia and beyond.

2 migrations of Krishna clan: 1st from Mathura to Dwaraka and then to Harappan after Krishna left in 3101 BCE. 2nd to Bet Dwaraka and S. India at the decline of the Harappan around 1500 BCE. Almost all the excavations in TN are of these migrants. Eg: Vajra in Porunthal potsherd is the name of Krishna's great grandson. The migrants were 18 kings related to Krishna, 18 sections of Velirs & Aruvalar as per Tamil sources. Their presence seen from Maharashtra to down south in 3 States. Till 1000 years ago they remembered their origins. Today merged with others. For details watch
