Ayurveda, the indigenous science of medicine, is traced to the Atharvaveda.

The Rigveda is a collection of hymns of praise and not a medical source.

The Yajurveda deals with sacrificial ritual rather than healing.

The Samaveda holds chants for worship, not the science of medicine.

The Atharvaveda's spells and remedies gave rise to early Indian medical thought.

Ayurveda is often called an upaveda linked to the Atharvaveda.
