Bāṇa, the author of the *Harsha-charita* who wrote about 620 A.D., "carries back the proof of the antiquity of the Agni, Bhāgavata, Mārkaṇḍeya and Vāyu *Purāṇas* four centuries further back than Alberuni, who in 1030 gives the list of the eighteen *Purāṇas* as given in the Vishṇu *Purāṇa*, having seen three of them himself."
