In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationVedavedya (वेदवेद्य) refers to “that which is “known through the Vedas”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.42.—Accordingly, as Viṣṇu eulogised Śiva:—“[...] O great God, O supreme God, the bestower of blessings on the world, O storehouse of mercy, the helper of the distressed, Thou art the great Brahman, the great soul. O Lord, Thou art all-pervasive and independent. Thy glory can be known only through the Vedas (i.e., vedavedya-yaśas). This Dakṣa is my devotee. He has been wicked to censure you before. He has committed an offence making us meritless. O great lord, Thou must forgive him since thou art free from aberrations”.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) 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.
