Kashyap Samhitā (Devanagari कश्यप संहिता, also Kashyapa, Kasyap, Kasyapa), also known as Vriddha Jivakiya Tantra is a treatise on Ayurveda attributed to the sage Kashyapa.
The text is often named as one of the earliest treatises on Indian medicine, alongside works like the Sushruta Samhita, Charaka Samhita, Bhela Samhita, and Harita Samhita.[1] It is dependent upon the works of the Ayuvedic practitioner Charaka.[2]
In contemporary practice of Ayurveda, it is often consulted in the fields of Ayuvedic pediatrics, gynecology and obstetrics.[3] It is also part of the Ayurveda teaching syllabus, especially in Kaumarabhritya Balaroga.[4] The treatise was translated into Chinese during the Middle Ages.[5][6]
