In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Puranic EncyclopediaIrimpu (इरिमà¥à¤ªà¥�).—A Malayalam word meaning 'iron'. The metal iron originated in the following way. The Devas sought BrahmÄ’s protection against the onslaughts of TÄrakÄsura, who had obtained a boon to the effect that he could be killed only by a son born to Åšiva. And, implored by BrahmÄ and others Åšiva entered into the sex act with PÄrvatÄ«. The impact shook the universe. Agni separated them from the process and the semen of Åšiva dropped in Agni. Agni deposited it in the Gaá¹…gÄ. The Gaá¹…gÄ could not bear it and it coursed through her (Gaá¹…gÄ's) arteries and out of it was born Subrahmaṇya. Also from the particles of the semen gold and silver were produced. From the intensity of the heat were produced iron and copper. See under Subrahmaṇya. (VÄlmÄ«ki RÄmÄyaṇa, BÄla KÄṇá¸a, Canto 37).

The Purana (पà¥à¤°à¤¾à¤�, purÄṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
