Answer:
The two sacrifices or yajnas performed by the king during the later vedic period were Asvamedhya yajna and rajasuyu yajna.
Explanation:
he purpose of both these yajnas was the establishment of overlordship of a king over his neighbouring kingdoms. In Asvamedhya yajana, the king would send his horse to neighbouring kingdom. If the neighbouring king stopped the horse, it means challenge to the king and then began the war against the same king. If the king send the horse back, it means he accepted the lordship of the powerful king and then the same horse was sacrificed.
