Based on corpora of Indus writing and a dictionary, the book
validates Aristotle's insight on writing systems. Indus writing is
composed using symbols of spoken words. The symbols are hieroglyphs
of meluhha (mleccha) words spoken by artisans recording the
repertoire of stone, mineral and metal workers. The writing results
in a set of catalogs of metalworking of bronze age. Evidence of
this competence in metallurgy which evolved from 4th millennium BCE
of bronze age, is provided in corpora of metalware catalogs and a
dictionary of melluhha (mleccha). Indus writing was a principal
tool of economic administration for account-keeping by artisan and
trader guilds and did not record literature or, history. Some
sacred ideas and historical links across interaction areas between
India and ancient Near East, may be inferred from the writing.
