Later Vedic period: The rest of the three Vedas, namely the Sama Veda, the yajur Veda and the Atharva Veda were composed during this period. The Ramayana, Mahabharata and some parts of puranas were also composed during this period. The Ramayana was written by Valmiki and the Mahabharata was written by Veda Vyasa.
Political life: The Rajan was no more a tribal chief now. He was now a king with a proper kingdom and a big army at his disposal. The extent of his kingdom determined his power and status. The rajan now enjoyed the titles like Samrat and Maharajadhiraja.
Economic life: Besides the Vedas, the excavations at various sites like Hastinapur, Kausambi and Atranjikhera in Uttar Pradesh have discovered remains of mud walls with pieces of mud bricks and burnt bricks. Bamboo poles were used for building roofs in these houses. The floors were made of fine yellowish earth. Large quantities of wheat, rice and barley have been found that the Vedic men must have grown. Ploughing was done with wooden ploughshares.
Society: The position of women became inferior to men. Even though the presence of women was essential in religious ceremonies, still they occupied a lower position in society. Their education had also taken a backseat. The family continued to be the basic unit of society with the father as head of the family. The boys were sent to gurukula to study in the same way as in the early Vedic period.
