The Indus Script: Texts, Concordance and Tables c9.s5.13

c9.s5.13

Mr Mahadevan brought out his edition and concordance of the texts in the Indus script in 1977, improving upon the Finnish concordance in several respects.⁴⁹ Besides, Mahadevan could include more text material on the basis of the Photo Archive of the ASI, which preserves old unpublished photographs of objects since lost. On the other hand, however, Mahadevan excluded all material that Asko Parpola had discovered in the museums of Pakistan and that had been included in the Finnish concordance. Mahadevan's book further included a listing of the texts on which the concordance is based, good documentation, and several cross charts with interesting statistics of different kinds.
