The exact date that the text was written is unclear and there is a lot of debate among scholars about this but is believed to be somewhere between 400 BC and 300 AD.
The words, ‘ Kama’ and ‘Sutra’ are both Sanskrit and can loosely be translated as follows: It is believed that the Indra Sinha translation which was published in 1980 was the first widely distributed copy and it is this text that is often reproduced, particularly on the internet. There have many translations and variations of the book in the last forty years, including manuals, DVDs and novelty games all focusing on one part of the Kama Sutra the various ways to couple during sex.
Credited as being the work of the ancient Indian philosopher, Vatsyayana, the Kama Sutra is one of the most famous books in the world certainly, the most famous book ever written about human sexuality.
