The "Liber Kalilae et Dimnae" is the medieval translation of the Panchatantra (Five Principles) which was originally a collection of Sanskrit and Pali animal fables in verse and prose. The original Sanskrit text is now long lost and was probably composed in the 3rd century BC. It is attributed to Vishnu Sama. However, it originates in older oral traditions that probably go back to the origins of language and India's earliest social groupings of hunting and fishing folk gathered around campfires. The "Liber Septem Sapientium" is a 12th century translation by Jean de Hauteseille (Joannes de Alta Silva) and is of Persian or Indian origin. This edition comes with a glossary of medieval Latin terms in English, German and French.
