रुमण्वान् / RUMAṆVĀN II. The eldest of the five sons born to jamadagni by his wife reṇukā. The sons of jamadagni were, rumaṇvān, suṣeṇa, vasu, viśvāvasu and paraśurāma. It was rumaṇvān that jamadagni ordered to kill reṇukā who was late in fetching water from the river. But rumaṇvān did not obey his father. The angry hermit cursed rumaṇvān. According to the curse rumaṇvān became dull-witted like birds and beasts. (M.B. Vana Parva, Chapter 116, Stanza 10).
