The Indus Script: Texts, Concordance and Tables c8.10

c8.10

Within the cultural exchange programme, the ASI sent Dr K.V. Ramesh to work on the project for three weeks in November-December 1986. The outlines of the preface and introduction subsequently drafted by Dr Parpola and the principles of selecting the photographs were then agreed upon. During the spring and summer of 1987, the photographs were selected, arranged and prepared for the press by Asko Parpola with the assistance of Virpi Hämeen-Anttila. Mrs Hämeen-Anttila also skilfully carried out the layout of the photographs; drew the map planned by Dr Parpola and the symbols in Table 1 and in the page captions; and substantially helped Dr Parpola in the preparation of the list of basic data for the objects illustrated. Shri Jagat Pati Joshi, Additional Director General of the ASI, was nominated by the Government of India as the co-editor for editing the work of the Corpus in the light of the fund of information available in India on the subject.
