Rohini (Krishna's wife)

Krishna is described to have the eight principal queen-consorts, the Ashtabharya and 16,000 or 16,100 ceremonial wives; Rohini is described as one of the Ashtabharya or identified with the queen Jambavati in some lists and head of the other wives in a different list.

Ratnagrabha, a commentator on the scripture, includes her as one of the Ashtabharya, identifying her with Jambavati.

He considers Rohini as the queen's birth name and Jambavati, a patronymic literally "daughter of Jambavan" her epithet.

[3] Rohini and Krishna are described to have unspecified number of sons, out of which only Diptiman and Tamratapta are named.

[3][4][5] The Mausala Parva of the Mahabharata which describes the death of Krishna and end of his race records four of Krishna's wives, including Rohini jumped into his funeral pyre, immolating themselves.
