Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationVinatātanaya (विनतातनय) is another name for Garuḍa, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.42 (“Description of the meeting of the Lord and the Mountain”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “[...] The mountain saw Viṣṇu, bedecked in ornaments and seated on Garuḍa [i.e., Vinatātanaya] to the right of lord Śiva. O sage, to the left of the lord stood I, the four-faced deity, shining brilliantly and accompanied by my attendants. On seeing us both, great favourites of Śiva for ever, the lord of mountains with all his retinue respectfully bowed to us. Similarly, on seeing the gods and others brilliantly shining behind lord Śiva and at his sides, the lord of mountains bowed to them. [...]”.
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.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
