Gaṇeśa is signified by the hieroglyphs of elephant trunk and cobrahood. The rebus Meluhha readings are:
karibha, ibha 'elephant' rebus: karba, ib 'iron'
फड, phaḍa 'cobra hood' rebus: फड, phaḍa 'metalwork manufactory artisan guild'. 

In the sculpture, the sculptor signifies the association or guild of phaḍa 'metals manufactory' as the explanatory organization, as a factor of economic production, to produce prosperity and wealth. Śiva Purāṇa says that Gaṇeśa had two sons: Kşema (prosperity) and Lābha (wealth, profit). In northern Indian variants of this story, the sons are often said to be signifiers of Śubha (auspiciousness) and Lābha.

Thus, the theme of wealth-accounting for a nation continues in such sculptural metaphors in Ancient india. See:
