Rigveda is the oldest of the Vedas.
The Vedas are the Hindu religion's oldest scriptures. They are written in the Sanskrit language. They first appeared in ancient India. The Vedas are the oldest surviving works of Indian literature. The four Vedas are the Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda, and Atharva Veda. The oldest of these is the Rig Veda, which was written around 3500 years ago. The Rigveda contains over a thousand hymns known as sukta, which means "well-said." These hymns are written in honour of various gods and goddesses. All of the other Vedas are based on it and contain a large number of hymns from it.
