c9.s5.1

In all, 537 symbols have been listed here. Out of these the living beings, which are of 8 categories, include 99 symbols; the stylized objects, which are 19 in all, have 132 symbols; and the remainder, 306, are grouped under other categories. There can be no finality in the correctness of the number as long as the script remains undeciphered. Probably symbols as in Pl. I*a*. II. 6, 7, or in Pl. I*a*. VII. 5, 6, may represent the same sense. Such possible corrections must be borne in mind.
