The Vedic Age, traditionally divided into the Early Vedic (c. 1500-1000 BCE) and Later Vedic periods (c. 1000-600 BCE), saw significant cultural and societal evolution in ancient India. The Early Vedic period was characterized by a nomadic lifestyle, with a focus on pastoralism and the composition of the Rigveda, while the Later Vedic Age marked a transition to settled agriculture, urbanization, and the composition of the Samaveda, Yajurveda, and Atharvaveda. Additionally, during the Later Vedic period, societal structures became more complex, leading to the emergence of the varna system and increased ritualism in religious practices. This evolution laid the groundwork for many aspects of later Indian civilization.
