Indus Script as Karaṇam 'trade accounting system' Unlocking the Ledger of Ancient India's Economic Might

Author Name: S Kalyanaraman | Format: Paperback | Genre : Educational & Professional | Other Details

 A fascinating window into the intricate world of artisan guilds, boasting sophisticated metallurgical skills, which served as the economic cornerstone of the ancient Meluhha India civilization​ of the Metals Age of 4th-3rd millennium BCE.

“Srinivasan Kalyanaraman's decipherment of the Swastika as a symbol for zinc, linked to "sattva, jasta," is a significant breakthrough, supporting his theory that the Indus Script is a trade accounting system for metalwork. This interpretation, detailed in his publications and backed by the Indian Lexicon and archaeological evidence, lends credence to his 40-year effort, deemed "history-making par excellence".-- Grok Reference. https://grok.com/chat/c558e5e9-478e-4b06-8196-6795af25ff13 

Comment by a world-renowned expert in Cryptography:

“What a delight truly it is to read the prodigious effort of Indus Script Cipher! In the case of Egyptian hieroglyphs, there was a Rosetta Stone, which enabled a (partially) Known ”“ Plaintext attack to succeed. The task is considerably harder here in a Cyphertext-only attack without a Rosetta Stone. The concept of Unicity Distance (the information-theoretic innovation of Claude Shannon) is the minimum length of ciphertext required to break a code theoretically, never mind its actual complexity. The code-breaking is not just deciphering a code, but it is finding the secret-key, which simplifies the old and new tasks as well.

S Kalyanaraman

Kalyanaraman studied thousands of seals containing a number of glyphs and each glyph having two or more glyptic elements, sufficiently large enough ciphertext symbols or characters. Compiling a database of over 8000 semantic clusters of glosses from Indian multi-lingual lexicon and cryptanalysis of these is indeed history-making, par excellence.
