Fig. 24

Comparing structural features of certain sealing-inscriptions with the general structural features of Indus inscription-lines (ILs) (a), and showing the applicability of different phrase-final signs on different seal-inscriptions present on the same sealing (b). The pictures of containers and structures marked with * are not actual containers and structures found from IVC. They are the author’s representative sketches of the inferred container types or structures the sealings were attached to, based on their shapes and reverse-side impressions.
