Yadu, Yādava : m. (pl.): Name of a people, often identified with Vṛṣṇis so that their accounts get mixed up; sometimes mentioned also along with Andhakas and Bhojas.
A. Origin: Yādavas were born in the line of Yadu, son of Yayāti (yados tu yādavā jātāḥ) 1. 80. 26; (yaduś ca… yādavānāṁ kulakaro…) 5. 147. 6-7; the lineage of Yadus is traced back to Vivasvant (putrā vivasvataḥ sarve…tebhyo 'yaṁ kuruvaṁśaś ca yadūnāṁ bharatasya ca) 1. 1. 41, 44; Other accounts:

C. Description: Of unlimited energy (amitaujas) 16. 9. 12; spirited, of true valour, very strong; led by Kṛṣṇa, they all were like Indra and got all enjoyments (kṛṣṇapraṇītāḥ sarva evendrakalpāḥ/ manasvinaḥ satyaparākramāś ca/mahābalā yādavā bhogavantaḥ//) 5. 28. 12 (Nī. on Bom.

(9) Dhṛtarāṣṭra remembered that the Māgadha king with the assistance of Karṇa had checked all Kṣatriyas except Kauravas and Yādavas (arautsīt pārthivaṁ kṣatram ṛte kauravayādayān) 8. 5. 22;
(10) Kuntī felt that nothing would be more painful to her than the fight between Pāṇḍavas, Cedis, Pāñcālas and Yādavas with Bhāratas (i. e. Kauravas) (…yādavāś ca samāgatāḥ/ bhāratair yadi yotsyanti kiṁ nu duḥkham ataḥ param) 5. 142. 12;
(11) From Upaplavya, Balarāma along with all Yādavas set out for tīrthayātrā to Sarasvatī under the constellation Maitra (maitre nakṣatrayoge sma sahitaḥ sarvayādavaiḥ) 9. 34. 12;
(12) Kṛṣṇa told Gāndhārī that he had already foreseen the destruction of Yādavas brought about by mutual killings (parasparakṛtaṁ nāśam ataḥ prāpsyanti yādavāḥ) 11. 25. 45;
