The Script of Harappa and Mohenjodaro and its Connection with Other Scripts c8.23

c8.23

M. 235, 237, 245, 353, 409, 492, 508, I.19, H. 166, all contain a single sign in the second line. In every case the first line is to be read from right to left and the sign of the second line as the final sign. It will be noted that the second line sign in nos. M. 235, 409, I. 19, is a variety of ◿, which in the single line inscriptions also is invariably final (see Table XXVII nos. 1, 3, 4); in nos. 245, 492, it is ◿, which is also normally final (see Table XCIII), which is further confirmation that the script reads usually from right to left.
