C) Sama Veda D) Rig Veda
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Atharva Veda

The Vedas are considered the earliest literary record of Indo-Aryan civilization. It is the most sacred scriptures of India.

 

There are four Vedas in Hinduism. They are:

1. The Rig Veda,

2. Sama Veda,

3. Yajur Veda and

4. Atharva Veda.


Most ailments, both physical and mental, were attributed to malevolent spirits and cures consisted of rituals, charms, mantras, medicines and surgical intervention.
