Skanda Purana

The ''Skanda Purāṇa'' (Tamil:கந்த புராணம் Kanda Purāṇam) is the largest ''Mahāpurāṇa'', a genre of eighteen Hindu religious texts.〔Ganesh Vasudeo Tagare (1996). ''Studies in .'' Published by Motilal Banarsidass, ISBN 81-208-1260-3〕 The text is devoted mainly to the lilas of Kartikeya, a son of Shiva and Parvati, who is also known as Skanda. It also contains a number of legends about Shiva, and the holy places associated with him. This ''Mahāpurāṇa'' was recited by the sage Vyasa, and is available in distinct parts, sometimes fragmented too.
== Date of composition ==

There are a number of texts and manuscripts that bear the title ''Skanda Purana''. Some of these texts have little in common except the name. The original text has accrued several additions, resulting in several different versions. It is, therefore, very difficult to establish an exact date of composition for the Skanda Purana.
Haraprasad Shastri discovered an old manuscript of Skanda Purana in Nepal, written in Gupta script. He and Cecil Bendall dated the manuscript to 7th century CE, on paleographic grounds. This suggests that the original text existed before this time.〔 R. Adriaensen, H.Bakker, and H. Isaacson (1998) dated the earliest extant manuscript of Skanda Purana to 810 CE, and suggested that the earliest versions of the text were composed in 6th century CE.〔
Stylistically, the ''Skanda Purana'' is related to the ''Mahabharata'', and it appears that its composers borrowed from the ''Mahabharata''. The two texts employ similar stock phrases and compounds that are not found in the ''Ramayana''.〔 Some of the mythology mentioned in the present version of the ''Skanda Purana'' is undoubtedly post-Gupta period, consistent with the medieval South India. This indicates that several additions were made to the original text over the next few centuries. The Kashi Khanda, for example, acquired its present form around the mid-13th century CE. The latest part of the text might have been composed in as late as 15th century CE.〔
