This is the mainly Proof .. India lot INSCRIPTION avaialable 1.)Tamizhi inscription 2.)Poly language inscription 3.)Ashoca inscription 4.)Devanagari inscription.. 5.)SANSKRIT inscription Then Tamil language world wide Lot of evidence is available. But Sanskrit evidence little bit only available..

@Cr00kedKnight Yes, the carvings on the seals are mirror images so that when impressions are taken, the sealings have the right orientation

[@yajnadevam]

@Cr00kedKnight Seals are read left-to-right because they are designed to create mirror impressions. Seal impressions (ie sealings), bas-relief items, copper plates, implements, everything else is read right-to-left

Yazidis and other groups in Iraq etc still worship Murugan, one of our oldest deities, just like Greek word Mega is derived from Maha (kha becomes hard G) MELUHA could be a corruption of MURUGA. Greco-Roman gods Mars and Hermes both carry leaf-tipped spear, which is rather unusual shape, and is of course used by Lord Murugan. There were several trading posts in Sumeria and Mesoporamia called Meluhan Villages, these may have been trading posts that became like a meluhan "Chinatown". As a bonus note: Soften the hard Gs in Gilgamesh, and you get Hl-ham-esh which is like Olaham-esh which is Tamil for lord or leader of the World, esh being lord, olaham being the whole universe. These are my personal theories but you're welcome to investigate them at a scholarly level. Thanks for reading 🙏

I was studying your paper very very carefully. The paper is phenomenal, but I am little concerned with the phonetic values of some signs. I need to see what phonetic values you give for critical signs like fish, jar, vata patra , etc etc. Indus script definitely encodes a variant of Vedic Sanskrit language. I am in full agreement with this.Paper is worth studying multiple times.

@@kddraco333 And how do you expect 2-4K Steppe dudes migrating to India having 10-20 million people, changing all the hydronyms, toponyms in Northern India within 600 years? How do you explain that most hydronyms in Southern India are IE, with only some rivers being Dravidian? Hydronyms and toponyms are very conservative, and don't change easily unless invasions of the most brutal ways. For example: Ohio is not an English name, Mississippi is not English, but native American. Even invasions can't change hydronyms easily, let alone migrations. And why would those Steppe immigrants make up 20,000 words for IVC things and technologies instead of borrowing? And why don't we see a non-IE substrate in Sanskrit and other Indo-Aryan languages? How do you expect these 2-4K people to go to each village and convince the people to speak IE? How do you fit the language change between Rigveda Samhita to Mahabharata and Puranas within a 800 time period? Sanskrit is a very conservative language, and the changes have to take place for millennia.

Indus script is Early Brahmi script which later became Brahmi from which later Sanskrit and Tamil evolved is what I understood from the talk . Tamil is a natural language , simple , very few consonants , most suitable to ordinary people while Sanskrit was developed by scholars to make this language rich in alphabets and words with well developed Grammar by Panini. As yagnadevam states Panini came later , classic Sanskrit came later .

Amazing work.....On one of the Bihar's Sonbhadra cave walls, a doorway is carved and beside it is an inscription which has not been deciphered to date. The inscription is said to be in the Shankhalipi. Shankhalipi or shell script was a modification of Brahmi script that was in use at the time. Shankha means conch shell and the script has ornate spiral characters arranged in neat lines to form sentences. *It is said that this undeciphered inscription gives the magical code to unlock the doorway*

[@lewisrobinson3380]

@@yajnadevam I really appreciate this. I was hoping to see some kind of sound correspondence with Linear A or B, that didn't pan out at all so I decided to look at Elder Futhark just to see and I am so glad I did... So far it looks like Elder Futhark an Early Germanic scripts bears some resemblances to certain sounds you've attributed to symbols. For examples Elder Futhark D "dagaz" looks pretty similar to a couple of the D or Dh symbols you have which makes sense as PIE *dʰ = d in proto-germanic at least at the beginning of a word. Elder Futhark A "ansuz" looks like the edge of the symbol you describe as "an" Elder Futhark N "naudiz" looks a lot like a couple of the symbols you describe as "Stalk" and reconstruct ṇāla with. Elder Futher ï "iwaz" is a dipthong vowel that's close to or identical with æ in sound. The iwaz symbol looks identical to one of the ā stick[AV] symbols but is also used for one of the O symbols you reconstructed as opasa. What makes this even more curious is the PIE *o becomes ā in Indo-Aryan and æ in some of the Germanic languages such as Old English. Elder Futhark h "haglaz" looks related to the symbols for ladder/sopāna what makes this interesting is that PIE *ḱ becomes h in proto-germanic ; ś in Sanskrit; s in Avestan Elder Futhark k "kauna" and g "gebo" look related to kṛtam dice[ŚBr] symbols with sounds like k and kh. PIE *k can remain K in Indo-Aryan but in Proto-Germanic frequently become H or G in the case of PIE *kt = ght in Old English for example. PIE *g typically becomes K in Proto-Germanic however which might explain this similarity. Elder Futhark m "mannaz" looks possibly related to maya horse[VS] with the M sound. PIE *m for the most part correlated in Proto-Germanic and Indo-Aryan the name of the rune itself is cognate with Manu. Elder Futhark w "wunjo" looks like vartī lamp wick[MBh] with a sound starting with V. PIE *W becomes V in Indo-Iranian and remains W in Proto-Germanic. Elder Futhark þ "thurisaz" looks a bit like tardū wooden ladles with a sound of T. However this comparison seems weaker than the above. Elder Futhark t "tiwaz" also looks a bit like some of those symbols, but looks closer to the Latin and Greek alphabets. Elder Futhark z "algiz" looks related to śikhā peacock crest[MBh] which has the sound of ś. What makes this curious is that proto-germanic Z comes from PIE *s particularly at the end of suffixes. PIE *onos becomes proto-germanic *anaz. Granted it also looks like Ancient Greek "Psi" Elder Futhark j "jeran" notably looks a lot like the correspondance you have for Brahmi Script "jh" which is under jhara waterfall[Prab] which is quite noteable since "jeran" looks nothing like Roman or Greek characters especially since Latin didn't have a "j" until after the 2nd century.

[@yajnadevam]

Brahmi was a standardization and therefore a reduction of the IVC sign list. If they did not reduce it, then Brahmi would have hundreds of signs too. Also, retroflex consonants in Sanskrits are from RUKI law and not borrowed from Dravidian. Languages borrow words, not series of consonants. No language has ever borrowed an entire series of consonants. That's just an ignorant claim.

@Jeevaji14 Many epigraphists have seen striking similarities between Harappan script and Brahmi script which suggests that Brahmi is the direct descendant of Indus Script. Given that the conjunction and markings used in Indus writings are very similar to the Sanskrit it is almost clear that the Harappans used to speak Sanskrit language not Tamil.

[@cratonic_]

@@AbhishekTiwari1111 the vikramkhol script shows the clear transformation of indus script to tamizhi or tamizh brahmi script. u have to realize that scripts evolve from simple to complex. so tamizh brahmi is simple and brahmi has more letters. practically u can say that tamizh brahmi or tamizhi can be a precursor to even the brahmi script and the tamizhi script came from ivc script

[@cryptonash16]

Nice, can you use your algo to track patterns between Avestan, Vedic, Puranas, Yazata? From my research, it seems like battle of the 10 kings is at around 600BCE/500BCE an it refers to the invasion of Darius as Druhyus and his Achaeminids empire along with his mercenary tribes such as the Sakas etc. The battle of the 10 kings clearly mention these tribe names, and the Scythian confederation does not exist before 900 BCE. If you study Persian history, after Cyrus (Kurush) from the Aryan Kamboja tribe expansion to the Indus, he setup a Satrapy near Indus whereby the later Darius the 1st's father Hystaspes ( Vishtaspa in the Gathas) controlled a Satrapy near Indus, and it seems that his dad studied from the magis in India. Soon after that we see a boom in Zoroastrianism, before that in Cyrus time we never see any mention about Zoroastrianism. Hence it seems like the Zoroastrianism concept, formulated in the Kuru Kingdom and Haryana was Airyanem Vaejah, Sarasvathi As Haraxvaiti and Sapta sindhu as Hepthahindu.. So they brought the memory along with them to BMAC, settled there for a while and moved into the Iranian Plateu. @yajnadevam you may refer this to your colleague as well.

[@linguistme6870]

Sarasvati's indentification with haraxvaiti is not accepted by many scholars only few minority of them do Secondly if you bring 10 kings around 600 BCE that would have drastic implications like if that was the case why does Buddha mention Kurus of ancient past in Diggha Nikaya ? Also the entire Samhita literature should be over before they start writing Upanishads reasoing being Chandogya Upanishad and Taitriya Upanishad were popular around time of Buddha we know that from Diggha Nikay Chapter 13 of Volume 1 but Chandogya Upanishad in 7.1.2 itslef refers to them , now since we know chandogya was popular around 600-500 BCE we should conclude that it would have been written somewhere around 800-700 BCE if that is the case than definitely be older. Though there is an "alternate theory" according to HINDUS Traditions which shift Gautam Buddha around 1800-1700 BCE and Mauryas to around 1500-1350 BCE

[@cryptonash16]

We need comparative timelines for these. First or all no written evidence remains and most of these literature was orally transmitted.. Idk. Also if you compare with Prince Vijayas arrival to Sri Lanka, around 600 BCE.. He doesn't bring any Buddhist culture along (Siddhartha Gautama being the the most prominent one among a list of his 20 other predecessor Buddhas), although Sramana (Shaman) culture had been preexisting in the IVC for thousands of years. Buddhist culture starts in Sri Lanka slowly after Asokas invasion of Kalinga, as there there was a movement to spread the Buddhist teachings. Why didn't Chandragupta Maurya adopt Buddhist philosophy, because the Buddhist theology did not really take shape until Siddhartha came along, or was not adopted by the general population since ruling classes/aristocracy /kings did not take a liking to it as of yet. We can agree to disagree, but I don't agree of trying to backdate Indian culture to thousands of years just to prove a point to other people that Indian culture is a very old one, truth should remain truth. Many scholars do not accept Haraxvaiti to be Sarasvathi why? Are they looking at at just rivers, or trying to Geofix its location? Human history is a history of migration..The Zoroastrianians or Kambojas has a fallout with the general Kuru tribes and are labelled as Anarya because of their habits. They brought the culture and memory with them (Hence, Haraxvaiti and Hapta Haendu) and they always refer Haraxvaiti and Hapta Haendu as one of the 16 perfect lands created by their prophet Zoroaster. They also labelled the Vedic Devas as evil and the leader as Angra Mainyu(Angiras?) and called their God as Ahura Mazda., this is probably the logical explanation why the schism began. For example, If you look at Turkey, there is a place called Adhiyaman, and in Tamil nadu there was a king called Adhiyaman. The memory of older settlements continously linger in peoples memory. Take for example in kerala, they have built 100 kaurava temples dedicated to their ancestors, and the community managing these temples belong to the Kuruva people. Kuru is just one of the tribes in Ancient India, and they were an adventurous one. Hence they are a well known, We also see striking similarities with the Quraysh tribe of Arabia. They were a merchant tribe which controlled and managed many temples in the Arabian peninsula. We should do a deep study about the Kamboja, Gandhara, Sakas, and Kuru connection to understanding better of Indian history I suggest because these are major players in the Mahajanapada.

[@cryptonash16]

Also to add, prior to the battle of the 10 kings.. These adventurous Kambojas who were part of the Kuru dynasty settled in Badakshan province/north east Iran about 2000 BCE to control the gem route of Turquoise, Carnelian and Lapis Lazuli. These ones slowly assumed a new Iranian identity due to the BMAC influence and migrated into the Iranian Plateau/Anatolia/Arabian Peninsula. There were many sects of these Kamboja tribes, there were the Parama Kambojas, Kambojas etc...These trade guilds retained their idolatry/paganistic/circumbulatory Indian practises that you still see in the middle East. Another thing is that these merchants had an army of their own and built places of worship wherever they go.. Take for example Angkor Wat by the Cambodians (Kampuchea/Kamboja). Hence some were Indic/some Iranian, some become Arabaized, and even Jews (Anjuman/Anjuvannam). If my guess is right, Cyrus the great and Family descended from the ParamaKambojas (Royal Kambojas). Let's hope Darius l was not lying in his inscriptions at Nashq E Rostam & Pasargadae 😅

[@cryptonash16]

​@@linguistme6870As long a confusion/doubt remains, scholars remain relevant. They never formed a consensus and come to a common ground because the subject is their bread and butter plus egoism plays a role here. The concept of Zoroastrianism was formulated in the Kuru Kingdom of present day Punjab. A sect of these tribe, the Kambojas settled in the BMAC region to control trade etc, and they have some memory of the Vedic religion. Hytaspes, Darius the Greats Satrapy Father later enhanced the Zoroastrianism religion by infusing Indic knowledge...by branding this new religion. As you know religion was a way to control the masses, hence his son Darius killed the true heir of Cyrus and pushed his agenda to the Achaeminids (Haxamanushiya).

It is in seal right to left that means script direction is left to right. You know seals are made to put it on something like paper. If you put the seal on paper then you will find letters are squized in right side. Therefore, actually script is left to right not right to left as claimed here and others.

Indus civilisation people migrated from Sindhus region for some valid reasons. They consisted mainly of traders who had stationed there to trade conveniently with the western countries like Sumeria. Wherever they settled they always provided themselves with comfortable residence facilities. Originally they were from ancient Tamilnadu. There were other supporters and dependants and other technicians.

[@Joseph-yu4lx]

They travelled towards their homeland and found eastern port city Kaveripoompattinam It was then a growing capital city and so they settled there and traded with the eastern countries. When very later this city suffered massive sea erosion the people travelled further south and settled in a place away from from sea and flooding rivers. So the descendants of Sindhus civilisation people still living in Tamilnadu, still practising their traditional practices and cultural customs. The people are called NAGARATHHAR meaning people living in cities. The area is called Chettinadu.

I appreciate the effort. This approach can contribute valuable insights, especially in organizing the Indus symbols, analyzing frequency patterns, and identifying potential phonetic elements. However, your method’s success depends significantly on the assumption that the people spoke Sanskrit, which is tough to fathom. Your critique of dating PIE languages is absolutely incorrect. And worse, the dependence on anecdotal & limited astronomical data from Rig Veda to date Sanskrit is non-sensical at best.

[@yajnadevam]

PIE is a model and PIE timeline is an assumption. Sanskrit as the language of the indus script is a mathematical certainty that anyone is free to disprove. You can't date an axiomatic model like the PIE. Please understand the difference between attested evidence and axiomatic models.

[@nomdeguerre4249]

After watching this presentation, it was unclear how exactly Yajnadevam had derived the sound values of the various Indus glyphs. However, since he explains his methodology, at least, in general terms, I assumed details corroborating his claims would be obvious in his paper, and I actually expressed congratulation, which I've since withdrawn. Having read his paper, what is described is not at all a convincing decipherment. The core of the issue is that he assigns the same phoneme to a large group of glyphs, which are obviously not allographs (see table 5 in section 3). Most importantly, he hasn’t demonstrated how this kind of approach wouldn’t allow one to force fit some other language by simply grouping signs, irrespective of their appearance, in a way to produce meaningful sounds in that language. One weak support of this decipherment is that seals from Middle East archaeological context encoding a non-Indus language do produce words in Sumerian or Akkadian, and not just nonsense sound values. But, even here, obtaining decipherments of “boat labor” or just a word like “wine” are just not very convincing. Couple of other points: 1. There in not a single artifact with combined Indus and Brahmi scripts whose provenance is undisputed and authenticated. The reason is that they have all been claimed to be from an archaeological site, but not actually documented by any archaeologist as having been discovered by him or her at a particular site. If I’m unaware for some additional information that has come to light, I hope someone can provide a reliable source. 2. Concerning the Corded Ware article and genetics shown in the presentation, I’m glad no case has been made for South Asian origins. One shouldn’t do that - it would be an embarrassment. That article and chart could have been better explained by its authors, but basically they took a worldwide collection of DNA from modern populations and combined it with available ancient DNA to figure admixture rates. When the article was published in 2020 there was no ancient DNA from South Asia. That chart with groups like South Asian, South East Asian, North Americans, etc should not be viewed simply as contributors, but as groups that also shares a common background with the Corded Ware and other populations in Poland. Since then, we know that it’s the Steppe genetics that’s the shared background. Most importantly, South Asians have a significant source derived from a split of the Iran/Caucasus lineage, the common ancestor of which made up half the Steppe ancestry.

[@nomdeguerre4249]

One more thing... the only similarity between Steven Bonta and Yajnadevam is that both yield some version of Sanskrit as the underlying language. (This is significant of course, especially given the bias against any association between IVC and Sanskrit.) But, their starting approaches are completely different and the results are completely different. I see no validity to the comment during the Q&A that Steven Bonta being "more granular" would have yielded the same result as Yajnadevam.

[@yajnadevam]

There is a difference between a glyph and a sign. A sign can be represented as many glyphs. That's a minor point though. Multiple glyphs and signs for a sound is perfectly normal in ancient scripts. see Mayan and Sumerian. Not being able to do "grouping signs to forcefit any language" is indeed a property of information theory. If the amount of information (measured mathematically in bits) far exceeds the amount of information in the key, then the decipherment is reliable and unique. No other decipherment is possible. If this mathematical principle fails, then all encryption fails (including the https protocol you used to read this reply) and you would have created information out of nothing and falsified Shannon's work and indeed falsified all of information theory. We would also see thousands of such decipherments of the indus script in every one of the worlds languages. In short, "number of glyphs per sound" is not a criteria for falsification or proof of a decipherment. The only criteria is reading beyond the unicity distance meaningfully and in a reproducible manner

[@nomdeguerre4249]

@@yajnadevam Good to see your response, and yes, I meant "sign" and not "glyph" concerning your assignment of the same phoneme. Unfortunately, I don't have expertise in cryptanalysis to evaluate your output on a deeper technical level, but something seems "off": - Are you saying that multiple keys can't produce a scenario where the information would exceed their respective keys, especially given a limited corpus such as IVC inscriptions? In real world use cases such as http protocol, we are dealing with a near infinite corpus that can be used for validation. - Yes, I agree that "number of glyphs [and/or signs] per sound" is not a criteria for falsification, but lack of falsification by this criteria is also not a proof of accuracy. - If no other decipherment is possible simply because the information exceeds the key, then this is an open and shut case. Even if journals dealing with IE studies or archaeology won't consider your paper due to their internal biases, journals dealing with cryptography or even a broader scientific publication like "Science" should not have an issue with your work. Even if there are other politics involved with publication, you should be able to have your output validated by those with expertise in cryptanalysis and information theory. - At the end of the day, reproducibility and meaningful translations are all that matter. And, this would be undeniably convincing. I strongly suggest that you simply append your paper with a full list of the IVC corpus and your translations.

[@yajnadevam]

@@nomdeguerre4249 I have quoted "the amount of uncertainty we can introduce into the solution of the cryptogram cannot be greater than the key size"(Shannon, 1945). This means that every reading you force must come from the key and not the inscriptions, and therefore the information content your key will always be measurably larger than your readings.

[@nomdeguerre4249]

@@yajnadevam The sense I get is that the problem is with your key itself. (The key being the sound values you assign to the Indus signs/glyphs.) Once you have a key, I would assume that only one reading is possible. To this, I'm sure you would say, "If the amount of information (measured mathematically in bits) far exceeds the amount of information in the key, then the decipherment is reliable and unique. No other decipherment is possible." This makes me wonder if what you consider "information" truly is information. So, perhaps there is no violation of the principles of information theory after all. In the translated samples you listed in your paper, some like "diamond gem entrance" are quite convincing as information, but others like "unstopping" or "boat labor", while readable, are not very convincing as information. As I had said earlier, I think the simplest resolution is for you to post the full corpus of 3000+ Indus inscriptions from the various concordances and your translations.

By prioritising linguistic evidence over genetic evidence you have created a big gap in your hypothesis. Between the two, genetic evidence will always, always take precedence over linguistic evidence because genetic evidence is much less open to interpretations and therefore closer to the fact. For the Out-of-India theory to be proven, you need to prove that INDIAN-ORIGIN GENEs migrated out of the Subcontinent and reached Central Asia, then Eastern Europe, then Greece and Italy, for the Aryan language to be the real 'PIE'. There is of course no evidence of an Out-of-India migration to Europe, and that disconnects your hypothesis from reality.

[@yajnadevam]

Everything you said is incorrect. Firstly, Language is a network effect and not determined by genes. Many HG groups switch languages when absorbed by advanced cultures. The Steppes themselves switched their language twice in recorded history: once to Slavic and second time to Turkic!. Genetically related groups can speak completely unrelated languages. Japanese/Korean for example, share 91% of their DNA. Hungarians have no Turkic DNA at all. Secondly, the evidence here is archaeological, which supersedes everything else, including linguistics and genetic evidence. Thirdly, genetic evidence is statistical, not deterministic. There are studies showing South Asian DNA in corded ware, not that it matters because language can flow even without DNA.

[@85Sudi]

​@@yajnadevamyour assumption is based on the world as you see it today. But you are discussing the bronze age, when the 'network effect' you mention existed to a much lesser degree, as societies were more isolated than they are today. Yes, HG groups sometimes switch languages, but only when RULED OVER BY other cultures for a long enough period, and not otherwise. In the Steppes, entire demographics have changed since the Bronze Age due to Mongol and Timurid invasions, and also possibly those of the Huns before them. Unlike Korean, we are not discussing language isolates. The Hungarian language is Uralic, not Turkic. There is no archaeological or genetic evidence of substantial Indian culture (or religion) traveling west beyond Afghanistan except the Romani migration to Europe in medieval times. Language MUST flow with DNA in the bronze age. This has only changed since the invention of the telegraph, the telephone and the radio.
