It is narrated that Lichavis once
asked Mandagal ayana out(?)
of Udumbara, whether it was
possible for them to subdue Ajatasatru,
King of Magatha, when told
in reply "men of "asbista's"
race, ayon will conquer" 5
As many vashista's race were
Kshatriyas, it may be taken
that Licchavis were also
kshatriyas. It is also known
that Mahavir, the Jain
head, who has admitted both
taken as a Kshatriya, was
related to Licchavis.
