Yuyutsu ((サンスクリット:युयुत्सु)) in the Hindu epic ''Mahabharata'' was a son of Dhritrashtra with a Vaishya woman named Sughada. Conceived under the fear that Gandhari couldn't produce any children, he was as old as Duryodhana and the rest of the 99 Kuru brothers and Dushala. Eventually, he was the only son of Dhritarashtra who survived the Kurukshetra war. After the war, he took charge as the King of Indraprastha. ==Etymology== The word ''yuyutsu'' is derived from two Sanskrit words. First word is ''yu'' (original word ''yudh'' (युध्) ) and second word is ''utsu'' (original word ''utsuktā'' (उत्सुकता) ). ''yu'' means 'to fight' and ''utsu'' means 'curious'. So by combining these two words, the meaning of the name is 'the one who is curious to fight'. The Mahabharata cites the following other names for Yuyutsu- * Dhārtarāstra (धार्तराष्ट्र) - son of Dhritarashtra * Kauravya (कौरव्य) - descendant of Kuru * Vaishyaputra (वैश्यपुत्र) - son of a Vaishya woman 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yuyutsu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
