Post-Vedic Period (1000-600 BC) In Indian history, the period in which the Samaveda, Yajurveda and Atharva Veda and Brahmanical texts, Aranyakas and Upanishads were composed is called the post-Vedic period. Painted gray pottery was typical of this period, as the inhabitants here used clay painted and brown bowls and plates. They also used iron weapons. 1000 BC Iron equipment has been found in Gandhara, Pakistan. There iron tools have been found in the grave along with the dead. 800 BC It was used in the Ganges - Yamuna Doab around.
In the later Vedic period, small tribes merged into each other and were giving birth to large regional districts. For example, 'Puru' and 'Bharata' together form Kuru and 'Turvash' and 'Krivi' together are called Panchalas. Thus in the later Vedic period the Videhas of Kuru, Panchal, Kashi were the principal states. In the later Vedic period, the expansion of the area became more because they now knew the use of iron weapons and horse-drawn chariots. In the later Vedic period, the 'monarchy' was the basis of the governance system, but examples of republics have also been found at some places. The rank of king became hereditary.
In terms of development, this is the period when the Iron Age began in northern India. Irony did not immediately replace the copper-bronze, yet it was a step of development that had the potential to influence various aspects of life. The mention of iron is found in the later Vedic literature. Initially, iron was used for warfare and then gradually started in agriculture and other economic activities.
