Description1827 CE manuscript copy, Vedic era Aitareya Brahmana, Schoyen Collection Norway.jpg
English: The Brahmanas are a layer of texts in the Vedas, and they belong to the period 900–700 BCE. The Aitareya Brahmana is a pre-5th century BCE text of the Vedic era, with some dating it to c. 600 BCE. It covers various matters relating to Vedic rituals, how to conduct them properly, and discusses the various meanings of the samhita hymns.
