Indus writing as metalware catalogs and not as agrarian accounting
Iravatham Mahadevan has drawn attention in his December 2012 article (cf. http://bharatkalyan97.blogspot.in/2013/05/agricultural-signs-in-indus-script.html ) to what he calls ‘agicultural signs’ discussing two long inscriptions (1623 and 2847) of Indus writing.
I do not treat this note as a critique of Mahadevan’s decipherment. Who knows, maybe, he is right....
