The term 辫耻谤腻峁嘺 originally did not mean the literature of this name. It stood for old narrative or ancient legend. According to the etymology, as mentioned in the V膩yu辫耻谤腻峁嘺,^[1] the term 辫耻谤腻峁嘺 means 鈥榯radition or that which exists from the ancient times.鈥� It is also observed in the Matsya辫耻谤腻峁嘺^[2] that the term 辫耻谤腻峁嘺 denotes the records of the past events. Kautilya, in his 础谤迟丑补艣腻蝉迟谤补,^[3] used the term 辫耻谤腻峁嘺 in the sense of old narrative.

Though, formerly the term 辫耻谤腻峁嘺 was used to mean the old narrative, yet in course of time the same term was applied to mean a specific branch of literature. As is observed in the early 厂尘峁泃颈 texts like Gautama^[4] and 驰补箩帽补惫补濒办测补,^[5] the term 辫耻谤腻峁嘺 was used to mean a branch of literature. It is to be noted that the 惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补^[6] has referred to the V膩yu辫耻谤腻峁嘺 which implies that the 笔耻谤腻峁嘺 literature at least partially, was in existence prior to the 惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补. The modern scholars are of the opinion that the process of composition of 笔耻谤腻峁嘺s passed from the days of the 叠谤腻丑尘补峁嘺蝉 till the age of the Guptas and even after.
