The Chandravanshi lineage is one of the three lineages into which the Kshatriya caste of Hindus is divided, the other two being the Suryavanshi and the Agnivanshi, descended from Agni. According to legend, the Chandravanshis are descended from Chandra,in theLunar Dynasty or the Hindu Moon God.

The Yaduvanshi lineage is the major branch of the Chandravanshi lineage. The Yaduvanshis claim descent from the Hindu God Krishna, who in turn was born into a Chandravanshi dynasty. Chandela Rajput dynasty who built Khajuraho were Chandravanshis. The Seuna Yadavas of Devagiri also traced their ancestry back to the Chandravanshi or "lunar branch".[1]
