SUMMARY. The analysis of the foregoing Tables enables us to recognize the vowels both independent and in composition. We also see which signs are simple variants. And we see which signs form regular groups and constitute words or phrases. We have identified the sign for 'God', 'to', 'from', 'son', 'slave', and guessed at several more. We have established the connection between Brahmi and Proto-Indian, and shown grounds for infering causal connections with Sumerian, Egyptian, Safa, Ethiopic, and Proto-Elamite. We may now explore these affinities with other scripts further in a Comparative Morphographic Table.
