Kakawin Kṛsnataka is an Old Javanese Hindu Kakawin.[1][2] The thesis library catalogue summary of Ando's work states:
Krsna has been one of the popular characters in Old Javanese literature, and a number of stories featuring Krsna as an incarnation of Wisnu as well as a mighty hero have come down to us. However, the study of those stories has previously been limited to a few relatively popular texts, and the story of the end of Krsna and his clan, which is the main theme of the Krsnantaka, an Old Javanese poetical work (kakawin), has escaped scholars' attention, apart from a few brief descriptions. The Krsnantaka is evidently an adaptation from the parwas, Old Javanese renderings of Sanskrit epics, and seems to be the last in the line of the kakawin adaptations of the Mahiibhiirata[3]
