Soorya Vansh, or Ikshwaaku Dynasty, or Kukutstha Vansh
[Branched from  V-Raamaayan, 3/1/3]
[Taken from Valmiki Ramayan 3/3.
This lineage can be traced out in Bhaagvat Puraan, 9/3 and some further chapters also]

Ikshwaaku dynasty has a long lineage. This is called Soorya Vansh, or Solar dynasty of Kshatriya, of which Mahaa Kavi Kaali Daas wondered as how it can be narrated, for it is of a long lineage and he admires "kva soorya prabhaavo vanshah?" in his Raghu Vansh Mahaa Kaavya, at 1-2. This dynasty may be known to understand why from Viraadh to Raavan, wanted to die at the hands of Raam. The list of those kings is compiled in Aanand Raamaayan and the same is being given hereunder...
