The Script of Harappa and Mohenjodaro and its Connection with Other Scripts c10.s1.20

c10.s1.20

Now 𐀂 follows not only 𐀀 , but 𐀆 (which we have seen is functionally similar to 𐀀 ) and a miscellaneous collection of signs (see Table LVIII). It is probably a suffix. Allowing for the difference in the number of inscriptions as between Mohenjodaro and Harappa this sign is proportionately seven times as frequent in Harappa, where it appears on 77 texts as against 20 at Mohenjodaro. But these are mostly business receipts (see analysis Table LVIII). 𐀃 occurs twice after 𐀀 and four times after other signs. It is in every case final. It may be taken as a determinative. (See Table LXIV). 𐀃 in 9 out of its 10 occurrences (see Table XI) is final. It follows 𐀀 3 times, and of its other antecedents one is 𓃀 . It may be taken as a determinative. 𓊪 is final in 6 out of 7 occurrences (see Table CIV). It follows 𓍿 4 times, and 𓃀 twice. It is probably a determinative.
