*Vide Vishnu Purana, IV amsa, 19th adhyaya: Harivamsa, 32nd adbyaya; Matsyapurana
49th adhyaya. Tin regard to Kapi and Garga, see remarks under Bharadvaja. It is doubtful whether
the descendants of Kapi and Garga referred to under Bharadvaja were his real descendants of the Kshatriya family as shewn in the above table. Vitatha, according to Vislınu Purana, was Bharadvaja himself, who had that name after he was adopted by king Bharata; but, according to Harivamsa, Vitatha was the son of Bharata who was born by virtue of sucrifice performed under the auspices of Bharadvaja. It is perhaps with reference to this conflict of opinion that some hold that the Kapis and the Gargas can intermarry with the Bharadvajas while others hold to the contrary. I suppose they were Kshatriyas, because the Samskritis, Kanvas, and Mudgalas, all of whom belong to the same family, are admittedly Kshatriyas and are allowed by all to inter
marry with the Bh:uradvajas. Katyayana's Anukramuni, III, 36 speaks of Ghera as a descendant of Angiras. It was
probably the family of Ghora into which the Kinvas were taken when they became Brahmans. In the Mahabharata, Anusasanika Parra, 85th adhyaya, Ghora is named
as a son of Angiras. STarkshya is stated by Sayana, Rig Veda-Bhishya X. 178, to be the father of Arishtanemi wl.o was an Angirasa. It was probably into his family that the Mudugalas were taken
on they became Brahmans. ||Sakti was the son of Vasishtha and Guruvita son of Sakti (See Anukramani VII. 32
EpX. 73.)
