Description
The approach to a decipherment presented in this volume makes avail of a bilingual, but its master key is the discovering of the symbolic connection of the Indus signs with the metaphoric language of the Rg-Veda. Nearly 200 inscriptions have been decoded here by setting them syllable for syllable in relation to Rg-Veda verses. The result that were gained by this method for the pictographic values of the Indus signs are surprising and far beyond the possibilities of the most daring phantasy.
