There will also be an Android app to allow you to easily find and manage your devices. Stay tuned! Posted by Benjamin Poiesz, Product Manager, Android source: Android Official Blog Meluhha writing, mlecchita vikalpa, metallurgists' writing -- takṣat vāk, inscribed Meluhha speech, on a 'snarling iron' of Chanhu-daro Note: 'Snarling iron' is a technical term, a metallurgical tool. In the context of the Bronze Age, this may be called 'Snarling Bronze' used for raising vessels using the tool as an anvil. At the outset, it should be underscored that 'Mleccha writing' is attested in an ancient Indian text as mlecchita vikalpa, that is, mleccha cypher writing (Vātsyāyana’s Kāmasūt Two scholars who have contributed significantly to the study of Indus Writing have provided some insights to unravel the functions served by glyphs used on Chanhu-daro inscriptional evidences. Parpola noted that ||/ sign is only found on inscriptions of Chanhudaro. It occurred on eleven objects, (around one sixth of all inscribed objects recovered from Chanhudaro) leading to a suggestion by Asko Parapola that the Glyph with two upright linear strokes and a slanted stroke ||/ , may represent town's name. (Parpola, Asko, Deciphering the Indus Script. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1994.) http://en.wikipedia. Mahadevan noted: "Compound signs for “god's share of the grain/crop”  The compound sign 139 occurs only on seals, mostly from Mohenjodaro. It is the only sign on a large “unicorn” seal from Chanhudaro (6131). It would appear that seals with this sign were used by temple functionaries to mark the clay-tags affixed to bundles of grain-stalks which were set apart as “god’s first share of the produce” at the threshing floor. The compound sign 142 occurs only on the miniature tablets and sealings from Harappa. The function of 142 seems to be somewhat different from that of 139. Sign 142 may depict the voluntary offerings by small farmers or tenants of the first fruits to god before further apportionment of the grain. Apparently, the miniature tablets or sealings marked with this sign would be placed on bundles of grain-stalks or heaps of grain offered to the deity." (Mahadevan, Iravatham, 2012, Agricultural signs in the Indus Script, in: The Journal of the Foundation for Agrarian Studies ISSN 2248-9002, Vol. 2, No. 2, July-December 2012) Mahadevan identifies elements of the Compound Glyph 139 as and  ; regards Glyph 137  to mean, “to divide, share (as grain)” and a modifying element A: “sky” to mean, 'deity'.These readings suggested by Parpola and Mahadevan may call for a review and revision, in the archaeological context discussed in this note. It should be noted that Glyph 137  with a modifying element of a short linearstroke ' occurs on two pure ingots discovered in a Haifa shipwreck. The contextual and correct reading of Glyph 137 is discussed on this note. There are variant rebus readings for Glyph 137 :X glyph which is common to epigraphs on both the tin ingots may refer to an ‘ingot’ or a dhatu ‘mineral’. 1. Dāṭu ‘cross’(Telugu) Rebus: dhatu ‘mineral’ (Santali). Vikalpa: bāṭa ‘road’ (Telugu). Rebus: bhaṭa ‘furnace’ (Santali) 2. ḍagar 'road' (Hindi) Rebus: damgar ' 3. kranta = the meeting place of cross-roads; a lane; a hole (Te.lex.) kranta = the betrothal presents taken to the bride from the bridegroom's house (Te.lex.) grantha = giving, dāna; bhāgi, vibhāga (Ka.lex.) 4. Ta. maṉṟu junction of four roads or streets (DEDR 4777). Rebus: mandil, mandir = temple (Santali) māḍa = shrine of a demon (Tu.); māḍia = house (Pkt.) The modifying element ' ligatured to on the tin ingot inscriptions, may be read rebus: खांडा [khāṇḍā] ‘notch’:Thus, the composite glyph on the tin ingots may be read in the context of the other glyph referring to ranku, 'tin' as: dhatu 'mineral' (to alloy) for kāṇḍa 'tools, pots and pans and metal-ware'. Alternative reading: ranku damgar, 'tin, metalware merchant'  An evidence for the use of a slanted stroke comes from Mohenjo-daro. The seal is m1909. kã̄g ‘boar’s tusk’; rebus: kã̄gar ‘portable brazier’. dolio ‘spotted koḍi 'sprout' (Tulu)(DEDR 2049). koḍ 'Artisans’ workplace' (Gujarati) dula 'pair' Rebus: dul 'cast (metal)(Santali) Thus the composite glyph is read ad dul koḍ 'cast (metal) workshop'. Followed by the most-frequently occurring glyph on Indus writing corpora, the rim of jar: kanka 'rim' Rebus: 'scribe'. It appears that the slanted stroke was a distinct reference to a Meluhha (Mleccha) word. The hieroglyph of a slanted stroke in front of the animal on m1909 is: dhāḷ ‘a slope’; ‘inclination of a plane’ (G.);ḍhāḷiyum = adj. sloping, inclining (G.) Rebus: ḍhālako = a large metal ingot (G.) ḍhālakī = a metal heated and poured into a mould; a solid piece of metal; an ingot (Gujarati) Glyph: One long linear stroke. koḍa ‘one’ (Santali) Rebus: koḍ ‘artisan’s workshop’ (Kuwi) Glyph: Two long linear strokes. dol ‘likeness, picture, form’ [e.g., two tigers, two bulls, sign-pair.] Kashmiri. dula दुल । युग्मम् m. a pair, a couple, esp. of two similar things (Rām. 966) Rebus: dul ‘cast metal’ (Munda) Thus, the composite glyph ||/ frequently occurring on Chanhu-daro inscriptions can be read as slanted stroke followed by a pair of straight linear strokes: dhāḷ , 'slanted (stroke)' + dula 'pair or two'; read rebus: ḍhālako 'a large metal ingot' (Gujarati) + dul 'cast (metal)'. Thus, the composite glyph is read as a large cast metal ingot.  Glyph91 is a variant showing two slanted strokes followed by a straight linear stroke. koḍa ‘one’ (Santali) Rebus: koḍ ‘artisan’s workshop’ (Kuwi). The composite glyph is read rebus: ḍhālako dul , 'large cast metal ingot'' + koḍ ‘artisan’s workshop’. That is, a workshop (making) large cast metal ingots. The three strokes together may read: kolmo ‘three’ (Mu.); rebus: kolimi ‘smithy’ (Telugu). Chanhu-daro standard I suggest that the composite glyph ||/ referred to by Asko Parpola as a Chanhu-daro standard may read: smithy, workshop for large cast metal ingots. Some examples were cited in four pages on Illustrated London News (Nov. 21, 1936, pages 908-911):     Page 909 A "Sheffield of Ancient India: Chanhu-Daro's Metal Working Industry 10 x photos of copper knives, spears , razors, axes and dishes Page 910 Harappa Pottery, 5000 years old, Unique in Ancient India, Contrasted with Later Ware: Chanhu-Daro Dicoveries includes 16 x pictures Page 911 Lipstick 5000 Years Old- and Other "Modern" Relics of Ancient Indiaincludes 10 x photos  Indus Meluhha Writing inscription on a Chanhu-daro Snarling iron, 2529H, ASI, Central Antiquities Collection. 74.1/48   The dog glyph is a notch upon the edge of the bronze snarling tool read rebus as: खांडा [ khāṇḍā ] m A jag, notch, or indentation (as upon the edge of a tool or weapon). Rebus: kāṇḍa ‘tools, pots and pans and metal-ware’. There are 3 U glyphs: kolmo 'three' (Munda) Rebus: kolimi 'forge, smithy' (Telugu). baṭhu m. ʻ large pot in which grain is parched' (Sindhi) Rebus: bhāṭhā ʻ kiln ʼ(Awadhi). The three U glyphs together read: kolimi bhāṭhā 'forge, smithy (with) smelter/furnace'. The pair of glyphs preceding the 3 U glyphs are comparable to the pair of feet shown on some seals (discussed further in this note). aṭai அடை 'anvil' (Tamil) combined with the U glyph which is baṭhu yields the compound lexeme: பட்டடை¹ paṭṭaṭai(Tamil); cognate paṭṭaḍi smithy, forge (Kannada)  The inscription on the 'snarling iron' of Chanhudaro can thus be read as: kolimi paṭṭaḍi 'anvil for smithy/forge'. The inscription accurately describes in Meluhha (Mleccha) language the function served by the anvil for raising vessels in a smithy/forge. Reference to aṭai, aḍi அடை 'anvil' yields the clue to the rebus readings of 'feet, footprint' glyphs which occur on seals, discussed further in this note.  Glyph: aṭi foot, footprint (Tamil) Rebus: aḍe, aḍa, aḍi the piece of wood on which the five artisans put the article which they happen to operate upon, a support (Kannada) Glyph: araṇe 'lizard' (Tulu) eraṇi f. ʻ anvil ʼ (Gujarati); aheraṇ, ahiraṇ, airaṇ, airṇī, haraṇ f. (Marathi) Glyph: bhaṭa ‘six’ (G.) rebus: baṭa = kiln (Santali) baṭa = a kind of iron (Gujarati) [Note: six legs shown on the lizard glyph] The rebus readings are: aḍi 'anvil' airaṇ 'anvil' (for use in) baṭa 'iron working' or kiln/furnace-work.
