The Mohenjo Daro culture⁵ has not yet been adequately studied so as to yield the precise socio-anthropological links between the thoughts and institutions of Vedic India as well as those of pre-Vedic and post-Vedic ages. But already it may not be unsafe to trace the beginnings of \*Dharma\* and \*Artha\* ideologies or institutions in the \*milieu\* of the Mother Goddess, the Śiva-like figure, the phallus, the tree (\*pipul\*) worship, the Nāga, the cross-legged figure, the pictographic seals, the \*Swastika\*, the partially syllabic scripts etc. of the Mohenjo Daro complex.
