Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Puranic EncyclopediaVimada (विमद).—A truthful King. Once a princess named Kamadyū accepted Vimada as her husband at her Svayaṃvara marriage. The Kings and princes who were present became jealous of Vimada and prepared for war. The helpless Vimada praised the Aśvinīdevas. The gods defeated the enemies and gave the bride to Vimada. (Ṛgveda, Maṇḍala 1, Anuvāka 17, Sūkta 117).
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.
