Thread on the Rashtrika(Ratta) tribe and some Rashtrakuta clans with special emphasis on Imperial Somavanshi Yadu Rashtrakutas.
Rashtrikas were one of the Proto-Maratha tribes of several clans that, along with the Bhoja tribe, formed 18 oligarchic republics lying between Narmada and Krishna rivers.
Rashtrika clans are found taking the appellation of Maharathi, Ratta, Rashtrakuta or even Maharashtrakuta.

The Imperial Rashtrakutas of Mulaka(Ellora) belonged to the Rashtrakuta clan of Latur as indicated by their title "Lattalurapuravardhishwara". Maharashtrakuta Karka's son Dantidurga, who was the Governor of Mulaka(Ellora region) under Chalukyas, founded the Rashtrakuta Empire.
The Deoli plates and Kandhara inscription state that the Imperial Rashtrakuta clan descended from Yuyudhana Satyaki of the Vrishni Yadava Kula of Somavansha.
Sitabuldi inscription dated 1087 CE from the reign of Kalyani Chalukya Emperor Vikramaditya, mentions a Mahasamanta Dhadideva of the Maharashtrakuta family of Latur granting land to Brahman who had migrated along with him.
The Kanhegaon Marathi inscription of 1258 CE mentions Gopaladeva, the King of Latur and Mandlika of Kanherao (Yadava Krishnadeva) as "Rashtraudavanshodbhava" , "Lattaluraprasada" & belonging to SomvanshKula.
Represented by the Somvanshi clan villages in Udgir & Nilanga blocks.

Rattas of Sugandhavarti and Venugrama were another branch of Lattalura Rashtrakutas claiming descent from "Kandharapuravaradhiswara" Krishnadeva III of Manyakheta.
The Pol/Sankhpal clan of Sankeshwar(Belagum), Sangli, Kolhapur, Sindhudurg region claim descent from them.

To conclude, Rashtrakutas of Mulaka(Ellora), Manyakhet, Saundatti and Belgaum were branches of Lattalura Rashtrakutas and hence the same Somavanshi Yadava clan.
Now lets see some Rashtrakuta clans other than Imperial Rashtrakutas of Lattalura/Manyakheta and their branches.
1) Rashtrakutas of Kuntala ruling from Manapur (Man in Satara). These Rashtrakutas had Lion as their emblem.

3)Rashtrakutas of Kanyakubja and Mayuragiri(Baglan). This Rashtrakuta family appears to have been planted at Kanyakubja by the Imperial Somavanshi Rashtrakutas but clearly were not the same clan as their overlords.
Now represented by the Bagul clan of Baglan Kingdom.
