Ajivikas is the one of the most important heterodox sects of Hinduism. The Ajivikas sect seems to have been quite old, as there are allusions to predecessors of Makkhali Gosala, its most important leader. Apart from Gosala, Buddhist tradition also connects the Ajivikas doctrines with Purana Kassapa and Pakudha Kachchayana. A.L. Basham has put together and analysed the many scattered references to this sect.
