Detailed Solution

The given statement is True.
The Aryans have prepared a collection of hymns known as  Rigveda. The oldest Veda was a Rig Veda written about 3500 years ago. Rigveda consists of over a thousand hymns known as sukta or spells. Some Rigvedic hymns are interactive. Archaeologists discover the past in the Vedas. Rigveda is the main source of information about Vedic culture and provides information about people's religious, social and economic life. Old Sanskrit or Vedic Rigveda is different from the languages we learn today. Rigveda was read and heard rather than read. It was written in the 4th and 444th centuries since it was first composed and printed less than 200 years ago.
