Aitareya Brahmana is considered to be associated with which Veda?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rigveda

The direct answer is D: Rigveda. The Vedas are ancient collections of sacred hymns and ritual knowledge. A Brahmana is a prose text that explains rituals, sacrifices, and the meaning of Vedic ceremonies. The Aitareya Brahmana belongs to the Rigvedic tradition, so D is correct. Option A, Samaveda, is wrong because its associated Brahmana texts are different and the Aitareya Brahmana is not classified under it. Option B, Yajurveda, is wrong because the Yajurvedic tradition has texts such as the Shatapatha Brahmana and Taittiriya Brahmana, not Aitareya Brahmana. Option C, Atharvaveda, is wrong because Aitareya is not its Brahmana. Option D works because Aitareya is traditionally connected with the Shakala branch of the Rigveda. The safest method is to remember the exact pair rather than guess from the word “Brahmana”: Aitareya Brahmana—Rigveda. This question tests association between a Vedic prose work and its Veda, not the general meaning of the word Brahmana. Memory cue: “Aitareya begins with A, but its answer is Rigveda”; learn the pair directly.
