Indus Script Corpora of about 7000 inscriptions is dominated by one hieroglyph-multiplex set of a young bull in front of a 'standard device'. The decipherment of this hieroglyph-multiplex as hypertext signifying engraving, turning in metalwork and treasure deposited into the fortified treasury is a celebration of the excellence achieved by Meluhha artisans during the Bronze Age contributing to the tin-bronze revolution and cire perdue artefact splendour along the Maritime Tin Route from Hanoi to Haifa.

Out of 2906 texts of Mahadevan concordance, 1159 are signified by 'one-horned bull PLUS standard' hieroglyph-multiplex, making this the most frequently deployed cipher of Indus Script Corpora.

This hypertext has been deciphered in the context of the Bronzed Age revolution.

The hieroglyph-multiplex of a young bull was deciphered as turner, engraver (in metalwork).

The hieroglyph components of this multiplex are identified: one horn (koD), young bull (kondh), pannier (khond), rings on neck (koTiyum). Often shown in front of a standard device, additional hieroglyph components associated are: lathe-gimlet, portable furnace, dotted circles.

kammarsāla 'pannier' (Telugu)Rebus: karmāraśāla = workshop of blacksmith (Skt.) Synonym: kammāra [Vedic karmāra] a smith, a worker in metals generally D ii.126, A v.263; a silversmith Sn 962= Dh 239; Ji.223; a goldsmith J iii.281; v.282. The smiths in old India do not seem to be divided into black -- , gold -- and silver -- smiths, but seem to have been able to work equally well in iron, gold, and silver, as can be seen e. g. from Jiii.282 and VvA 250, where the smith is the maker of a needle. They were constituted into a guild, and some of them were well -- to -- do as appears from what is said of Cunda at D ii.126; owing to their usefulness they were held in great esteem by the people and king alike J iii.281.

ko_nda bullock (Kol.Nk.); bison (Pa.)(DEDR 2216). Rebus: कोंद kōnda ‘engraver, lapidary setting or infixing gems’ (Marathi) Grierson takes the word कन्दुः (Skt.) to be a cognate of kaNDa 'pot' rebus: kaNDa 'fire altar' (Santali)

Thus, the bullock or ox glyph seems to be an allograph of 'rim-of-jar' glyph in Indus Script corpora. When two bullocks are juxtaposed, the semantics of pairing point to dol 'likeness, pair'(Kashmiri); rebus: dul 'cast iron'(Santali) Thus, the pair of bullocks or oxen are read rebus: dul kō̃da 'two bullocks'; rebus: casting furnace or kiln'.
