The Mahābhārata recounts the lives and deeds of several generations of a ruling dynasty known as the Kuru clan.[8] Central to the epic is a dynastic conflict between two branches of this family—the five Pandava brothers and their cousins, the hundred Kauravas—over the throne of Hastinapura.[9] The climactic battle takes place at Kurukshetra, literally the “field of the Kurus,” also called Dharmakshetra (“field of dharma”).
