Taxila cross at Lahore Cathedral, Pakistan

“The taxila cross at Lahore Cathedral, Pakistan. There hangs on one of the walls of the Lahore Cathedral, a small framed cross. This is the famous Taxila Cross found just outside the ruins of Sirkap in 1935. This was a time when a book titled The Acts of Saint Thomas was well known. Discovered in 1822 in Syria, the book told of how St Thomas, having been assigned by Christ to preach the Gospel to the Indians, arrived by boat in the capital of King Gondophares.”

The inscription below records that it was found in 1935 and donated to the church by Mrs Cuthbert King (Mr King then being the Deputy Commissioner at Rawalpindi). Nothing surprising about a cross in a church, except that this particular relic goes by the name of the Taxila Cross. Because it was found just outside the fortification wall of Sirkap (one of the ruined cities of Taxila), it is taken by believers as a sign of the arrival of Christianity in our part of the world at the time that Sirkap lived."http://odysseuslahori.blogspot.com/2014/07/TaxilaCross.html

It is clear that the 'Taxila Cross' is a hoax. A + symbol, together with svastika symbol are hieroglyphs of Indus Script. The + symbol signifies a fire-altar with the indications of dotted circles on four corners which signify dhã̄ī 'strand' rebus: dhatu 'mineral ore'.

Svastika symbol signifies hieroglyph sattva 'svastika symbol' rebus: sattva, jasta 'pewter, zinc'.


Another example of Indus Script seal is presented with a decipherment.

The + glyph of Sibri evidence is comparable to the large-sized 'dot', dotted circles and + glyph shown on this Mohenjo-daro seal m0352 with dotted circles repeated on 5 sides A to F. Mohenjo-daro Seal m0352 shows dotted circles in the four corners of a fire-altar and at the centre of the altar together with four raised 'bun' ingot-type rounded features. Rebus readings of m0352 hieroglyphs:

Since the Indus Script inscriptions are documented in very small objects such as miniature tablets of Harappa of the size of a thumb-nail, विकल्पजाल, the net of hieroglyphs and hypertexts architecturted by ligatured hieroglyphs (e.g. composite animal or 
Sign 418 which is composed a number of hieroglyphs such as water-carrier -- body fused like a fish, rude harrow, rim-of-jar and a small ingot shape). This विकल्पजाल 'a net of alternative combinations' renders the script to be a stunningly precise cipher, providing a medium to convey messages composed of spoken words and even expressions.

This Sign 418 occurs on a Kalibangan terracotta two-sided tablet.

(CDIAL 3790) 2. khaṇḍā ‘tools, pots and pans and metal-ware’.

Sign 418 Mahadevan (ASI 1977 Concordance) 
Sign 418 Mahadevan is a composition of ligatured signs of Sign 49 infixed, Signs 342, 372, 171 superscripted on Sig 12 which signifies a 'water-carrier': kuṭi ‘water-carrier’ (Telugu); Rebus: kuṭhi ‘smelter furnace’ (Santali).

Sign 59 aya 'fish' rebus: ayas 'alloy metal'
Sign 373 Hieroglyph 'shape of bun ingot' mũh metal ingot (Santali) mũhã̄ = the quantity of iron produced at one time from a furnace'. It is also a variant of rhomb us shape:kanac 'corner' rebus: kancu 'bell-metal'. Thus, bell-metal ingot.
Sign 171 maĩd ʻrude harrow or clod breakerʼ (Marathi) rebus: mẽṛhẽt,med 'iron' (Mu.Ho.) med 'copper' (Slavic) Duplicated Sign 171 adds: dula 'pair' rebus: dul 'metal casting'. Thus duplicated Sign 171 reads rebus: iron, copper metal castings.
Thus, Sign 418 Mahadevan is smelter (of) ayas 'alloy metal', goṭā 'round pebblestone' Rebus: goṭā ''laterite, ferrite ore'  'gold braid' खोट [khōṭa] ‘ingot, wedge’; A mass of metal (unwrought or of old metal melted down)(Marathi)  khoṭ f ʻalloy' (Lahnda); N. ̄de ʻ harrow S. ḍ̠andārī f. ʻ rake ʼ, L(Ju.) ḍ̠ãdāl m., °lī f. (CDIAL 6153) rebus:dhatu 'mineral ore' (Santali)  dhātu n. ʻsubstance ʼ RV., m. ʻ element ʼ MBh., ʻ metal, mineral, ore (esp. of a red colour)ʼ; dhāūdhāv m.f. ʻ a partic. soft red stone ʼ(Marathi) धवड (p. 436) [ dhavaḍa ] m (Or धावड) A class or an individual of it. 

Sign 15 itself seems to be a ligature of signs 12 and 342.
Sign 15 PLUS three linear strokes on 28 tiny tablets of Harappa are read rebus :kuṭhi kaṇḍa kanka 'smelting furnace account (scribe), supercargo' PLUS kolom 'three' Rebus: kolami 'smithy'. kaṇḍa kanka also signifies: metalware supercargo.
kuṭi ‘water-carrier’ (Telugu); Rebus: kuṭhi ‘smelter furnace’ (Santali)  See: http://bharatkalyan97.blogspot.co.uk/2011/11/decoding-longest-inscription-of-indus.html

(CDIAL 3790) 2. khaṇḍā ‘tools, pots and pans and metal-ware’.

Thus, the hypertext composition of Sign 418 Mahadevan reads Meluhha rebus: supercargo, helmsman, scribe (engraver) (working with) smelter of alloy metal, laterite and other ferrite mineral ores, gold braid.

Sign 328 Wells
  Signs 348 and 353 include Sign 342 'rim-of-jar' orthography and ligatures such as Sign 171. Sign328 Wells is unique with duplicated Sign171 as ligatures PLUS Sign 391 and Sign 342. These are examples of hypertexts formed by combining hieroglyphs in an orthographic composition. This feature is comparable to the pictorial motifs which compose composite animals. The composition occurs to maximise the messaging within the limited space of a small tablet or seal, say, of the size of a thumbnail.
  Sign 342 Wells is a ligatured composition which infixes two Signs171 and Sign39a within Sign 343. The rebus Meluhha (Indian sprachbund) readings are: 

Sign 171 maĩd ʻrude harrow or clod breakerʼ (Marathi) rebus: mẽṛhẽt,med 'iron' (Mu.Ho.) med 'copper' (Slavic) Duplicated Sign 171 adds: dula 'pair' rebus: dul 'metal casting'. Thus duplicated Sign 171 reads rebus: iron, copper metal castings. dhātu n. ʻsubstance ʼ RV., m. ʻ element ʼ MBh., ʻ metal, mineral, ore (esp. of a red colour)ʼ; dhāūdhāv m.f.

Sign 391 is the opening statement of each of the three segments of Dholavira signboard message. This is a ligatured hieroglyph. ara 'spoke' rebus: ara 'brass'. era, er-a = eraka =?nave; erako_lu = the iron axle of a carriage (Ka.M.); cf. irasu (Ka.lex.)[Note Sign 391 and its ligatures Signs 392 and 393 may connote a spoked-wheel,nave of the wheel through which the axle passes; cf. ara_, spoke]erka = ekke (Tbh.of arka) aka (Tbh. of arka) copper (metal);crystal (Ka.lex.) cf. eruvai = copper (Ta.lex.) eraka, er-aka = anymetal infusion (Ka.Tu.); erako molten cast (Tu.lex.) Rebus: eraka= copper (Ka.)eruvai =copper (Ta.); ere - a dark-red colour (Ka.)(DEDR 817). eraka, era, er-a= syn. erka, copper, weapons (Ka.)Vikalpa: ara, arā (RV.) = spokeof wheel  ஆரம்² āram , n. < āra. 1.
