Kaartaveerya-arjuna
In
Hinduism, King
Kaartaveerya-arjuna and his army visited a man named
Jamadagni, who fed his guest and the whole army with his divine cow; the king demanded the cow and Jamadagni refused because he needed the cow for his religious ceremonies. King Kaartaveerya-arjuna sent his soldiers to take the cow and
Parashurama, Jamadagni's son and
avatar of
Vishnu, killed the entire army and the king with his
axe (given to him by
Shiva). In return, the princes beheaded Jamadagni. In revenge, Parasurama killed the entire clan of Kaartaveerya-arjuna, thus conquering the entire
earth, which he gave to
Kasyapa.
