Yet another version said the Jadejas were descendants of the great Emperor Jamshed of Iran, hence the title Jam under which they ruled.

His successor, Jam Pumvro, had more than his share of troubles, and earned an evil reputation for himself but, for us, his title is of interest for it was derived apparently from the legendary Jamshed of Iranian origin.
