History of Yaduvanshi Lunar Race Tank or Tak Jadon Rajput of Mainpuri district of Uttar Pradesh ---

  History of Yaduvanshi Lunar Race Tank or Tak Jadon Rajputs of Mainpuri district in Uttar Pradesh --- Towards the close of the 7th or the beginning of the 8th  century  ,King Yashovarman of Kannauj (circa 690-740 A.D.) rose to power and became the Lord of the whole of Northern India.He seems to have conquered the kingdom of Mathura also but perhaps allowed it's Shurasena kings  ,probably Devaraj and Vatsadaman , to continue as his feudatories . The last prince of this line was perhaps Vatsadaman's son Anyadama .According to Kalhana's Rajataringini , the king of Kashmir temporarily  conquered the kingdom of Yashovarman (including Mathura )and the same work mentions that a little later (about the close of the 8th century ) a temple was built (in Kashmir ) by the son-in-low  of the then ruler of Mathura .It clearly indicates that the kings of Shauraseni line may have occupied Mathura soon after the Yashovarman episode or at least towards the beginning of the seventh century
