Vedic Literature Categories
The Vedic scriptural texts c. 1500–500 BCE = "late iron age [late Harappan]" (Oldenberg 1888) consisting of the four ancient collections, i.e.,
the Ṛgveda, the Sāmaveda [liturgical harmony/song (sāman)], the Yajurveda[liturgical rites], and the Atharvaveda [daily life rites].
The next layer of Vedic texts, the Brāhmaṇas, consists of prose ritual commentaries that offer procedures, justifications, and explanations.
The last two categories of Vedic literature are the Āraṇyakas, “Forest Texts,” and
the Upaniṣads, “Secret Mystical Doctrines”.
