Myths Submitts from me.

1. Lava (Ramayana)
Lava [1]
(Sanskrit: लव) and his twin brother Kusa, were the
children of Rama and Sita. Their story is recounted in
the Hindu epic, the Ramayana. Lava was younger of the
two and is said to have a wheatish golden complexion like
their mother, while Kusha had a blackish complexion like
their father.
Lava is purported to have founded Lavapuri[2]
(the modern
day city of Lahore),[3]
which is named after him.[4]
The
Sikarwar Rajputs, the Lohana, Awadhiya and Leva
Patidar are present-day Indo-Aryan ethnic groups who
claim their descent from Lava. Lava belongs to
the Ikshvaku clan or Suryavansha
Dynasty of Kshatriyas in ancient India.[1][5][6]

2. Kusha (Ramayana)
Kusha or Kusa (Sanskrit: कु श) and his twin
brother Lava were the children of Rama and Sita. Their
story is recounted in the Hindu epic, the Ramayana. Hindu
traditions claim he ruled the entire region of Kashmir,
Indus River and Hindu Kush as frontier lands of India
known as Hindu Kush Kshetra and founded the city of
Kashmir in the valley and Kasur with Lavapuri of lava in
base lands,[1]
though local lore contends Kasur was founded
in 1525 by Pashtun migrants.[2][3][4]
His brother Lava is
traditionally believed to have founded Lavapuri (current
day city of Lahore).
The imperial line that ruled Kingdom of Benares-Kashi and
the Maurya Empire, which ruled South Asia from 320-185
BCE, claimed descent from Kusha. Kusha is said to be
a Raghuvanshi Ikshvaku Suryavanshi.

3. Birth and childhood
Valmiki train Lava Kushas in Art of Archery
The Sage Valmiki, teaching Ramayana to Kusa and Lava
According to the Ramayana, a pregnant queen Sita leaves
the kingdom of Ayodhya in revolt when the King,
Lord Rama, asks her to prove her chastity to the citizens of
the kingdom to prove wrong the allegation about her by a
citizen of his kingdom. She then took refuge in
the ashram of the sage Valmiki located on the banks of
the Tamsa River.[5]
Sita gave birth to twin sons, Lava and
Kusha, at the ashram and were educated and trained in
military skills under the tutelage of Sage Valmiki. They also
learned the story of Rama.

4. Ashwamedha Yagya
During an Ashvamedha Yagya held by Rama, Sage Valmiki
along with Lava and Kusha, attended with Sita in disguise.
Lava and Kusha chanted the Ramayana in the presence of
Rama and a vast audience. When Lava and Kusha recited
about Sita's exile, Rama became grief-stricken and Valmiki
produced Sita. Sita, struck with embarrassment and grief,
called upon the earth, her mother (Bhūmi), to receive her
and as the ground opened, she vanished into it. Rama then
learnt that Lava and Kusha were his children.
In some versions, Lava and Kusha capture the horse of the
sacrifice and defeat Rama's brothers and their army and
when Rama came to fight with them. Sita intervened and
unites father and sons.
Later history[edit]
Lava and Kusha became rulers after their father Rama and
founded the cities of Lavapuri (currently identified as
modern day "Lahore") and kusha(kasur city) respectively.
Kushavati was a city in Kosala Kingdom as related in the
epic Ramayana. The king of Kosala, Rama, installed his son
Lava at Sravasti and Kusha at Kushavati.
