m1656 Mohenjodro Pectoral. The body of the young bull has the pictograph signified on the body. Arka flipped vertically and signified on the body of the young bull on pectoral, as shown below. The young bull signifies Hieroglyph: kõda 'young bull-calf'. Rebus: kundaṇa 'fine gold'; kār-kund 'manager'.
The overflowing pot atop the one-horned young bull is an Indus Script hypertext. The rebus reading in Meluhha of the overflowing pot is:
lokhaṇḍa 'metal tools, pots and pans, metalware' (Marathi) The expression is composed of two words: '(pot etc.) to overflow' and 'water'. The rebus readings are:
1. (B) {V} ``(pot, etc.) to ^overflow''. See `to be left over'. @B24310. #20851. Re(B) {V} ``(pot, etc.) to ^overflow''. See `to be left over'. (Munda ) Rebus: loh ‘copper’ (Hindi)

Thus, the overflowing pot is a hypertext to signify metal tools, pots and pans of copper, made by .the young bull kār-kunda 'manager' who works as an artisan with the metallurgical competence of 'lapidary, goldsmith, turner' in mint.
The monograph is organized in the following eight sections:
1. Symbol of one-horn of the bovine
2. Symbols of rings on neck-- Semantic determinative of kōḍe. [Tel.] n. A bullcalf. కోడెదూడ . A young bull.
3. Hieroglyph: neck, rings on neck:
4. Symbol highlights rump or thigh or hind leg
5. Pannier or double-sack symbol on the shoulder-- Semantic determinative of खोंड khōṇḍa m A young bull, a bullcalf
6. Womb symbol with sharp rays on the belly -- signifies खर 'sharp' PLUS amśu 'rays, lustre, brilliance'
7. m1656 Pectoral highlights a young bull. The young bull (so-called unicorn) with this ligature of 'womb' is read rebus: खर-अंशुः the sun.rebus: kār-kunda ' 'manager; खोंड khōṇḍa m A young bull, a bullcalf. (Marathi); कोंद kōnda

This monograph reads rebus in Meluhha expressions, the symbols signified on the composition often referred to as 'unicorn' in front of a standard device (lathe + portable furnace). This decipherment is central to the purpose served by over 8000 Indus Script incriptions, the raison d'etre of the messaging or documentation of the work performed by artisans to create the wealth of a nation, since 75 to 80% of these inscriptions contain the pictorial motifs of 1. 'unicorn' and 2. standard device. These pictorial motifs recorded from ca. 3300 BCE, are the ātmā, the puruṣārtha of the Civilization of the Bronze Age. पुरुषा* र्थ m. any object of human pursuit; any one of the four objects or aims of existence (viz. काम , the gratification of desire ; अर्थ , acquirement of wealth ; धर्म , discharge of duty ; मोक्ष , final emancipation) (मनु-स्मृति,प्रबोध-चन्द्रोदय, कपिल) ( -त्व n. ) सांख्यकारिका &c;
human effort or exertion (महाभारत, रामायण) &c (Monier-Williams)This is an addendum to: The 'unicorn' of Indus Script is کار کنده kār-kunda ''manager, director, adroit, clever, experienced' (Pashto)
The 'unicorn' is the defining hypertext of Sarasvati civilization.
Unique orthographic ligatures on the bovine provide leads to decipher the Indus Script Cipher. "The animal most often represented on the seals is the apparently single-horned beast . . .. There is a possibility, I think, that the artist intended to represent one horn behind the other. In other animals, however, the two horns are shown quite distinctly. In some respects the body of this beast, which is always a male, resembles that of an antelope of heavy build, such as the eland or oryx, and in others that of an ox. The long tuffed tail may belong to either class. The horn is sometimes smooth . . . sometimes it has transverse ridges. In the latter case, the possibility of the creature being an ox is ruled out. The long pointed ears are also characteristic of the antelope. Perhaps we have here a fabulous animal which is a composite of the ox and antelope. And yet to the casual eye there is nothing fantastic about it, as about some of the other animals represented on seals; nor does it in any way resemble the unicorn of heraldry, which is made up of different parts of a number of animals, though it must be noted that the traditional unicorn was supposed to have originated in India" [Marshall, John, Mohenjo-daro and The Indus Civilization, Vol. II, p.382].

I suggest that this is a semantic determinative of the 1) one-horn; hieroglhyph; 2) the workshop in which the artisan works and 3) the bovine which is a young bull : koḍiyum 'ring on neck' rebus: koḍ 'workplace'.

Orthography of the young bull clearly shows the 'womb' symbol with sun’s rays on the belly of the bovine.खरा* ंशु m. = °र-मयूख m.

Rebus reading of the 'womb' symbol with orthographically amplified by 'rays' semantically signifying 'sharpness' is: खरांशु 'rays of sun',i.e. khara'sharp', खर mf(आ)n. hard , harsh , rough , sharp , pungent , acid (opposed to मृद्/उ and श्लक्ष्ण्/अ)(महाभारत, रामायण) खरम् ind. in a sharp way (रामायण iii , 29 , 9) PLUS amśu 'rays, lustre, brilliance' rebus: khār 'blacksmith' PLUS ancu 'iron' (Tocharian).
