4.Datha in Athri and Anasuya Anasuya is credited with bringing rain and cultivating the fields even during famines and producing food .Dathathreya is brahmagnaani and starts the sakthy cult with his brother sage Durvasa.

9.Hayagreeva in the sacrificial vedi of Brahma (The vedic rites and the Lalithasahasranaama and sakthy cults)
10.Matsya during the pralaya in the 6th Manuanthara in Dravidanripa Satyavratha’s period In 13600BC there had been a deluge which was experienced all over the world due to the melting of northern glaciers.If we consider this as a landmark,
11.Katchapa in the churning of milky ocean-The renewal of the earth and its life,the earth again becomes habitable after the oceans go back to original position but with some major changes in geography.
12.Nrisimha during Prahlada’s time .The earth is inhabited by Hiranyakasyapa ,and his people .The next generation(Prahlada)are worried about the earth’s fate and the new era is ushered by advent of Narasimha .(The power of destruction against destructive forces)
13 Vamana ,son of Aditi and kasyapa during Mahabali’s reign The concept of wellbeing of citizens and the duties of ideal king and ideal state and the teaching that selfsacrifice at Gods feet is the best .
14.Danwanthari(Medicine)
15 Vishnumohini –birth of Ayyappa son of Shiva and of arts and music.
16.Parasurama son of Renuka and Jamadagni-time of Karthaveerya/viswamithra and towards the end of his life Srirama is also born.. Kerala is formed from the oceanbed (Towards the end of Parasurama’s life the period of Ramayana Mehrgarh period 9000 BC)(End of Threthayuga.which is 12960 yrs)Kerala was formed during the last flood and its aftermath ,that is well before the birth of Rama.During Vamana’s time
17.Rama son of Dasaratha and Kousalya in just before Mehrgarh period roughly.
18 Balarama with the plough and
19 Krishna with the flute are contemporaries of Pandava of Hasthinapura(3100 BC)Early to Late Harappan End of Dwaparayuga.
20Paashandavesha is predicted but no name mentioned.Some consider this as Budha but Mahabhagavatha has not mentioned any name.)
21.Kalki is predicted.
(If we take the 3 sanatkumara and Nara as separate as we did with Balarama and Krishna,total 25 is there.But Mahabhagavathapurana omits Mohini and makes it 24.)
Taking the 13600 BC as the base ,
And computing the periods of traditional units of the yuga in 4:3:2:1 ratio,
17280
12960
8640
4320,
From BC 3104 beyond,the threthayuga must have ended in BC 11744 and.the yugapralaya was in kritha/threthayuga period.The Mehrgarh period is then not in Threthayuga but in Dwaparayuga and the yadu /chandravansa were having an upper hand in trade and administration
