In Hinduism
Kavya (poetry)
Source: Shodhganga: The Kavyamimamsa of RajasekharaKrathakaiśika (क्रथकैशिक) is the name a locality mentioned in Rājaśekhara’s 10th-century Kāvyamīmāṃsā.—The country of Vidarbha is called the land of Krathakaiśikas (by the Raghuvaṃśa of Kālidāsa: V.39-40). However RS in his Kāvyamīmāṃsā mentions these two countries separately in the Dakṣiṇāpatha. In the story of Mahābhārata, a Vidarbha king had two sons‟ kratha and kaiśika and further based on their names these country was known as Krathakaisika (Sabhā-13). But very probably Rājaśekhara means Krathakaisika was only a part of the Vidarbha country.

Kavya (काव्य, kavya) refers to Sanskrit poetry, a popular ancient Indian tradition of literature. There have been many Sanskrit poets over the ages, hailing from ancient India and beyond. This topic includes mahakavya, or ‘epic poetry’ and natya, or ‘dramatic poetry’.

Source: Wisdom Library: India HistoryKrathakaiśika (क्रथकैशिक) is the name of a country included within Dakṣiṇapatha which was situated ahead of Māhiṣmatī according to Rājaśekhara (fl. 10th century) in his Kāvyamīmāṃsā (chapter 17). Dakṣiṇāpatha is a place-name ending is patha mentioned in the Gupta inscriptions. The Gupta empire (r. 3rd-century CE), founded by Śrī Gupta, covered much of ancient India and embraced the Dharmic religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism.

The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
