In the early Vedic period of Indian history, women’s education was given equal priority, despite the dominant preference of begetting sons in every household.A large number of young girls received both literary and cultural education.
The Rigveda contains hymns written by 27 women scholars. One of the prominent Brahmavadinis among these is Maitreyi. (Sanskrit: मैत्रेयी). Sage Maitreyi lived in ancient India during the later Vedic period (around the 8th century BCE).
She is renowned as one of the most intellectual and virtuous women philosophers of the Vedic period. She is also known as Brahmavadini, a scholar of the Vedas. The Rig Veda contains about one thousand hymns, of which 10 are accredited to Maitreyi.
