Actually Shri Krshna has more wifes: Mitravinda, the daughter of the king of Avanti. (The mentioning of Avanti alone is an indication that it is post-Mahabharata). Satya, was the daughter of the king of Koshala, named Nagnajit. Bhadra Kaikeyi, the daughter of Shrutakirti the king of Kaikeya. Lakshmana, the daughter of the king of Madra. Kalindi was another wife. Krshna had eight prominent wifes, but 16.000 also, the released daughters of Naraka Asura. (Actually Naraka is not a demon or hell originally, but is an offshoot dynasty from Videha, according to their own legends: The Jana-ka=father became the Nara-ka=man. The Naraka dynasty was famous in the kingdom of Pragjyotish) I believe any great number in Hindu mythology has something to do with celestial spheres=astronomy, which can be observed also in the numbers of Vedic hymns, etc. |
