Legend has it that Lord Krishna gave the Darshan of Rama to Jambhavan during His scuffle with Jambhavan.
Only then did jambhavan realized Lord Krishna and Rama were the same and gave his daughter jambhavati to Krishna in marriage.
It may be noted in scientific interest that Jambhavan belonged to a species that was dwindling during Krishna' period, Dwapara Yuga.
Vanara were yet another species, not monkeys as most of us believe
But, as I have been maintaining my posts, there is this obsession to follow the History(?) of Europe through European sources, when these sources quote Asian/Indian resources for their first migration !
The earliest Epic of Mankind, The Ramayana gives a clear description of the type of Species.
Valimki states that when Rama decided to attack Ravana He gave a call through Sugreeva.
The Vanaras came from all the places from Madhya Pradesh,South India, and from the place 'where the Sun always shines or always sets"
The last one is Polar regions.
