Vasudeva
"Vasudeva" is usually a popular name for Krishna, the son of Devaki and Vasudeva in Hinduism. His elder brother was Balram, and his younger sister was Subhadra. The worship of these three together was prevalent in the Magadha region, even during the Kushan period. The Jagannath temple, located in the Puri district of Odisha, is a living example of this. Lord Vasudeva's statue, made of red sandstone, was discovered in Devanagari, Nawada, Bihar.
