Puran

These are many purans, 18 being main. A brief history by Shivoham Project can be watched.

One way to classify these: (a) those that narrate stories that look fictious but convey essential teachings of Veds/ Upanishads and (b) those which describe Itihaas [history].

Another way to categorize these: Three sets, each connected to one of the trimurti – Vishnu, Brahma and Shiv.

There are other purans over and above, which are also listed in the table below.

One observation: In puranas [specially non-historical ones], the question is asked by Brahman and answer is given by Soot[सूत]. This indicates that in puranic timeframe, soot was not a lower caste. You can read more about these at (a) The Divine Life Society site, (b)Hind Utsav site
