   PART -II

The Indus syllabary reflects in the Mahesvarasutras

The most remarkable event of this part of the book was a chance meeting of the same text partly in two scripts : 4132 = 4147. Here the 3rd and 4th signs from the right use the numeral and geometrical signs. After a rigorous phonetic exercise they proved to be va ( 3rd) and Na (4th). Here not only 89 and 240 as well as 294 and 162 were identified as va and Na respectively, the whole numeral group was identified with the syllabic order of the Mahesvarasutras. Omitting the vowels, which are greatly disturbed in the sign-list,

10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 SUTRA
          96 95 89 87 86 (5-6) 
          298 - - 294 287 (7)
118 116 114 112 109 107 105 103 101 97 (8-10)
- 115 - 110 1085 106 104 102 100 98 (11-12)
121 120 119           99   (13-14)

represent the Mahesvarasutras, read from left to right.

In similar duplicate texts, ligatures as well as some Indus clauses reflecting in the wornout and decayed vedic words, the following signs were identified : 1 ra, 347 ka, 307 u, 216 i, 400 sa, l73 la, l2 Tha,53 bha, 54 ba, 59 na, 67 ha, 171 ta, 373 ca and 323 pa.
