The Indus Script: Texts, Concordance and Tables c4.s6.4

c4.s6.4

Apart from their inscriptions and iconography, the seals form an important category of artifacts in their own right, which we have seen to have much relevance for the study of the external relations of a culture as well as of its internal processes. Therefore, in addition to all the inscriptions in the Indus script, this Corpus will contain all the Harappan seals, including those without any inscription. In the case of other object types, 'inscription' has occasionally been understood rather liberally so as to include, for example, K-119, a most interesting 'terracotta cake' from Kalibangan, though its incisions form an iconographic motif rather than an inscription.
