The Danava dynasty was the first legendary line of rulers in Pragjyotisha, established by Mahiranga Danava.

[1] The dynasty was of Kirata origin.

These rulers are mentioned in the Kalika Purana but there are no archaeological evidence to support this.

The Danava dynasty consisted of Kirata chiefs; the last of whom, Ghatakasura, was killed and replaced by Naraka.
