Peacocks were brought to Jerusalem by King Solomon's (a Yadav king
Peacocks were brought to Jerusalem by King Solomon's (a Yadav king) fleet (Kings 10:22, 2 Chron. 9:21) from the Kingdom of Ahirs in India. Since peacocks are only found in Indian Subcontinent, the depiction of Peacocks in the paintings of King Solomons, only confirms the fact that peacoks were brought from India & the King Solomon has a great love for these bird's. Lord Krishna loved peacocks so much that He used to place its feather on His head.
On this basis, some scholars seek Yadav and Jews connection. According to Stephen Knapp, the Greeks referred to the Jews as Judeos, or Jah deos or Yadavas, meaning people of Ya or descendants of Yadu, one of the sons of Yayati.
