References to the Andhras, an ancient tribe, can be found in which Vedic text?

The correct answer is: c) Yajurveda

The Yajurveda is one of the four Vedas, the sacred texts of Hinduism. It is a collection of sacrificial formulas and instructions, and is divided into two main parts: the Vajasaneyi Samhita and the Taittiriya Samhita. The Vajasaneyi Samhita is the older of the two, and is the basis for the Krishna Yajurveda. The Taittiriya Samhita is the younger of the two, and is the basis for the Shukla Yajurveda.

The Yajurveda contains references to a number of ancient tribes, including the Andhras. The Andhras were a tribe that lived in the Deccan region of India. They are mentioned in the Yajurveda as being one of the tribes that was conquered by the Aryans.

The other options are incorrect because:

• The Rigveda is the oldest of the Vedas, and is a collection of hymns. It does not contain any references to the Andhras.
• The Samaveda is a collection of melodies that were used in Vedic rituals. It does not contain any references to the Andhras.
• The Aitareya Brahmana is a Brahmana text that is associated with the Rigveda. It does not contain any references to the Andhras.
