Commentary on the less common signs of the Indus Valley corpus
Authors
Ioannis Kenanidis, Evangelos Papakitsos
Abstract
The present work is part of a series of articles that claim to decipher the Indus (Valley) script, based on the linguistic theory of monogenesis and the pictographic affinity between the Indus and the Minoan scripts; the former (linguistic theory) argues in favour of a single ProtoHuman language that all other languages originate from, while the latter (pictographic affinity) is dictated by the fact that almost every Indus syllabogram has an obviously cognate sign in a Minoan script while the arrangement of signs is quite similar between the aforementioned scripts. Subsequently the study was conducted by observing and reasoning on the relative position and frequency of each sign.This series of studies proposes the Altaic origins of the Indus script and the conveyed language, demonstrating meaningful interpretations matching the deciphering of the Indus inscriptions’ signs. Accordingly, the 80% of the existing volume of signs in the Indus corpus have been previously commented on and assigned phonetic values, while the present paper focuses on the remaining 20%, which are the less common signs of the Indus corpus.
