Markandeya Purana
The Markandeya Purana ((サンスクリット:मार्कण्डेय पुराण)) is one of the eighteen major Mahapuranas, a genre of Hindu religious texts. It is written in the style of a dialogue between the ancient sage Markandeya and Jaimini, a disciple of Vyasa.
The text is notable for including the Devi Mahatmya within it, a central text of the Hindu Goddess-related Shaktism tradition.〔Thomas Coburn (2002), Devī-Māhātmya: The Crystallization of the Goddess Tradition, Motilal Banarsidass, ISBN 978-8120805576, pages 1-23〕

The three early printed editions of this text vary from one another. The Calcutta edition ends abruptly in chapter 136, leaving the narrative of ''Dama'' halfway. The Bombay and Poona editions have complete narrative of ''Dama'', which ends in chapter 137.〔Shastri, P. (1995). ''Introduction to the Puranas'', New Delhi: Rashtriya Sanskrit Sansthan, pp.77–8〕 The text begins with the four questions put forth by Jaimini to Markandeya, after he approached the latter for the solution of some doubts raised in his mind after studying the Mahabharata. Markandeya refers him to the four wise birds living in the Vindhyas. Consequently, the four wise birds speak to Jaimini in chapters 4–44.〔Hazra, R.C. (1962, reprint 2003). ''The Puranas'' in S. Radhakrishnan (ed.) ''The Cultural Heritage of India'', Vol.II, Kolkata:The Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture, ISBN 81-85843-03-1, pp.255–6〕 The chapters 53–100 contain the accounts of the 14 ''Manvantara''s (the periods of the ''Manu''s) of which 13 chapters (ch.81–93) are together known as the Devi Mahatmya (Glorification of the Great Goddess), which is embedded in this Purana.〔 The chapters 111–137 have dealt with the genealogies of the Puranic dynasties.
