The most apt deciphering of Indus valley civilization script with the help of 43 bilingual-like inscriptions -from Dholavira to the bulls and chimera of Harappan seals. Old Tamil language is here proved beyond doubts to be the lingua franca of the Indus civilization people.
Why and how is Indus script in Tamil? Starting from the author's ground breaking work "Read Indussian"(2012), more undeniable evidences have come up in support of the Tamil scripts of Indus valley civilization. Rosetta like seals which are the ultimate mode of proving an ancient language have been elucidated in this book with gratitude to I.Mahadevan and A.Parpola for the picture references from their Concordances, Texts and Tabulations of Indus scripts.
The Unhero brings together philosophy and history, weaving the threads of existentialism and the saga of the civilisations of the Indus Valley and Mesopotamia into the lives of ordinary men and women living in an extraordinary time, confronted with excruciatingly difficult choices. When you think of ancient civilisations, images of primitive men and women with lofty palaces, grand temples and esoteric, mystical practices probably go through your mind. But, the Indus Valley civilisation in the Indian subcontinent, spread over an area a dozen times that of contemporary Mesopotamia and Egypt combined, separated by more than 5,000 years from our time, was devoid of all such vanities to the egos of men and their Gods. No grand palaces to emperors and no monumental shrines to Gods built with the sweat of ordinary men and women were to be seen in the Indus Valley. Instead, a peaceful civilisation, shunning the barbarism of expansionism and aggressive warfare, focused its energies on art and craft, engineering, and trade to emerge as a beacon of rational existence; an object of envy even for us today in a supposedly far more enlightened age. Yet, even the Indus Valley civilisation could not escape its fate. Ravaged by the fury of nature, as well as the envy and barbarism of invaders, nearly all traces of this wondrous civilisation were wiped off the face of the earth, lost to history for more than 3,300 years. It was only in the 1920s that news of the existence of such a people was made known to the world. It is given to few generations to have to live through the tumultuous fall of a civilisation, particularly such a one as that of the Indus Valley. Yet, those who do must find answers to the most difficult questions of their lives. What should an ordinary men or women do in such extraordinary times? What of duty? Must one make the greatest sacrifice- giving up one's life for one's land, in what can only be a hopeless cause? What of the glory of war, and a person's honour and prestige in the eyes of men and women who are but strangers? And what can an ordinary person do to oppose the flow of history, even if he or she wanted to do something? The Unhero is the story of how ordinary men and women seek to find their answers to these questions in their own ways.

"Researchers have tentatively reconstructed a model of Indus life from the limited material that remains. Based on important findings from recent surveys and excavations in South Asia and neighboring regions, The Ancient Indus Valley explains what is now known about the Indus civilization's roots in the farming cultures of prehistoric South Asia, as well as the hallmarks of its extraordinary development. It is an eye-opening introduction to a vanished world - and a stirring testament to archaeology's power to recover the past."--BOOK JACKET.
The Dravidian language family is the world's fourth largest with over 175 million speakers across South Asia from Pakistan to Nepal, from Bangladesh to Sri Lanka as well as having communities in Malaysia, North America and the UK. Four of the languages, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Telugu are official national languages and the Dravidian family has had a rich literary and cultural influence. This authoritative reference source provides unique descriptions of 12 of these languages, covering their historical development alongside discussions of their specialised linguistic structures and features. Each chapter combines modern linguistic theory with traditional historical linguistics and a uniform structure allows for easy typological comparison between the individual languages. Two further chapters provide general information about the language family - the introduction, which covers the history, cultural implications and linguistic background, and a separate article on Dravidian writing systems. This volume includes languages from all 4 of the Dravidian family's subgroupings: South Dravidian e.g. Tamil, Kannada; South Central Dravidian e.g. Telugu, Konda; Central Dravidian e.g. Kolami; North Dravidian e.g. Brahui, Malto. Written by a team of expert contributors, many of whom are based in Asia, each language chapter offers a detailed analysis of phonology, morphology, syntax and followed by a list of the most relevant further reading to aid the independent scholar. The Dravidian Languages will be invaluable to students and researchers within linguistics and will also be of interest to readers in the fields of comparative literature, South Asian studies and Oriental studies.
