Book Synopsis Rise and Fall of Sanskrit (Revised Edition) by : Yussouf Shaheen
Download or read book Rise and Fall of Sanskrit (Revised Edition) written by Yussouf Shaheen and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-03-16 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sanskrit - the only preserved and the most ancient of all languages, generally proclaimed as language of the gods. According to Indian tradition, Sanskrit has neither beginning nor an end. It is eternal. It is everlasting. Historically, the Sanskrit was adopted, developed and refined by the invading Aryans in the Indus Valley, during 1500 BC. Sanskrit survived as the language of religion, literature and Hindu philosophy for over 3,357 years, dating from about 1500 BC to a close AD 1857. The term Aryans, Indo-Europeans and Indo-European Languages ? frequently used by historians is misleading; it is not correct that the Aryans or the Indo-Europeans were part of a great civilized nation. Aryan is a term that refers to migrants who settled in the Indus Valley; they were a mixed people; wanderers, criminals, mercenaries from the areas now known as Afghanistan, Iran, the tribal areas of Pakistan and Central Asia down to the Caspian Sea. In modern terms they can be identified as Pashtun, Tajik, Uzbek, Hazara, Kamboja, Yusufzai, Afridi, Khilji and the other Turkic tribes. The present-day Talibans and most of the people affiliated with Al-Qaeda are also the descendants of the Aryans.
Book Synopsis The History of "Proto-Writing", Indus Script, and the Minoan Writing Systems by : Stephen R. Duren
Download or read book The History of "Proto-Writing", Indus Script, and the Minoan Writing Systems written by Stephen R. Duren and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientist Stephen R. Duren from the University of South Florida presents recent novel findings of monumental importance pertaining to Sanskrit artifacts located in various museums around the world. The reason as to why a Scientist has written a book about Sanskrit archaeology and history is as follows; After confirmation from precise spelling and accurate descriptions of known Sumerian and Hindu deities, precise phonetic spelling of proper names of known civilizations, a comparison to known alphabets, a technical analysis of the Sanskrit language, and obvious embellishments serving as confirmation of various common words such as a picture of a rose next to the word rose, a reed next to the word reed, a moon next to the word moon, a sun with bird face next to a word that means both sun and bird, a man carrying bags next to the word bag-carrier, a vegetable next to the word vegetable, etc.: the ancient writing system of Indus Script, which is thought to have existed circa 1,700-3,000 BCE, has been fully deciphered and the language is the known ancient Sanskrit language. And so, thousands of Indus Script inscriptions have been translated into Sanskrit and then into English, and the most entertaining and historically significant inscriptions have been added into this book, which is meant to be an easy to read and entertaining instruction manual for the reader to learn how to read Indus Script, and by doing so; the reader will gain insight into this exciting time period of the ancient world and the culture of this highly advanced civilization. Although these finding may sound fantastical; the decipherment is presented with overwhelming supporting evidence. Once the reader learns the basics of Indus Script in Chapter 1, the reader will then go on to read a more difficult and older style of Indus Script, which dates back to 3,500 BCE in the Indus Valley city of Harappa (currently thought to be "proto-writing"). And so, as one would imagine: the oldest phonetic writing of the planet is included in this book, which is again the prehistoric parent writing system of Indus Script, called "Sanskrit Script", and these inscriptions explain many historical mysteries pertaining to multiple ancient civilizations outside of the Indus Valley, including prehistoric Sumeria, Egypt, and Europe, for reasons that one would have to read the core evidence in chapters 1-3 to believe (the main reason being that archaeologists have found Sanskrit Script inscriptions in these locations, which are clearly legible, and that these inscriptions have also been misidentified as "proto-writing"). The translation of inscriptions in a time which was previously pre-historic sheds light on multiple aspects of human culture and religion. Lastly, and most shockingly; the data presented in this book suggests that the Minoan alphabet is a later style of Sanskrit Script with additional letters that are seen in the later Phoenician, Greek, and Brahmi Script Alphabets, and therefore; the Minoan alphabet has been correctly identified as the parent writing system of the Phoenician alphabet. Minoan inscriptions pertaining to significant world events, such as the Minoan Volcanic Eruption Event (also recorded in Egyptian Hieroglyphics), are included in this book: including inscriptions detailing the interactions between the Minoans and people with "barely shaped like the beak of a crow"...
Book Synopsis Indus Script Cipher by : Srinivasan Kalyanaraman
Download or read book Indus Script Cipher written by Srinivasan Kalyanaraman and published by Srinivasan Kalyanaraman. This book was released on 2010 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a path-breaking work as significant as the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs by Champollion. For nearly130 years, the Indus script has remained a challenging enigma to scholars of languages, writing systems and civilization studies. The script was invented and used over an extensive area of what is called the Indus or Sindhu-Sarasvati civilization. Over 2000 or 80% of archaeological sites are found on the Sarasvati River basin, a river adored in a very old human document called the Rigveda and which dried up due to tectonic and resulting river migration causes. In 1822, history was made when Egyptian hieroglyphs were deciphered by Jean-Francois Champollion from parts of the Rosetta Stone. Champollion showed that the Egyptian writing system, c.3000 BCE was a combination of phonetic and ideographic glyphs. The Rosetta Stone is dated196 BCE and had a decree in three versions: one in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, one in the Egyptian demotic script, and one in ancient Greek. Since alphabets of ancient Greek were known, Champollion used the trilingual inscription to validate his historic decipherment. Indus Script Cipher makes history recording hundreds of hieroglyphs of India. Absence of a Rosetta Stone which has been the principal impediment in validating any decryption of Indus script cipher is thus overcome. Further validation comes from evidences of the historical periods in India from c. 600 BCE showing continued use of Indus script hieroglyphs which evolved from c. 3300 BCE. This book details a decipherment.of the Indus script using the same rebus method used by Champollion to read ancient phonetic hieroglyphs of Indiat. By demonstrating an Indian linguistic area of cultural and language contacts and history of language changes, this is a landmark contribution to civilization studies of the world and will promote efforts to rewrite the ancient socio-cultural and economic history of a billion people in India and neighboring regions.

Book Synopsis UNTOLD TRUTH FROM INDUS SEAL INSCRIPTIONS by : Prabhunath Hembrom
Download or read book UNTOLD TRUTH FROM INDUS SEAL INSCRIPTIONS written by Prabhunath Hembrom and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2024-06-05 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What the Indologists missed in deciphering the Indus seal inscriptions was the understanding of the basic contours of the script and that they not only meant mere words but flowing sentences. The incredible ideas emerging from the peculiarity of the images employed in writing on being diligently identified through the rebus method leads to defining the current social and religious roots prevalent in India. All the seal inscriptions amazingly follow the phonetic, syntactic and semantic principles; and also redefine the existence of superstructures, trade and economy, which altogether help to brand the Harappan Civilization as a literate society.

Book Synopsis The Indus Script and the Ṛg-Veda by : Egbert Richter-Ushanas
Download or read book The Indus Script and the Ṛg-Veda written by Egbert Richter-Ushanas and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publ.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The deciphering of the Indus script has met with suspicion and is exposed to ridicule even. Many people are nowadays of the opinion that the Indus script is altogether indecipherable, if not a bilingual of considerable size turns up. The approach to a decipherment presented in this volume makes avail of a bilingual, too, but its masterkey is the discovering of the symbolic connection of the Indus signs with the metaphoric language of the Rg-Veda. Nearly 200 inscriptions, among them the longest and those with the most interesting motifs, have been decoded here by setting them syllable for syllable in relation to Rg-Vedic verses. The results that were gained by this method for the pictographic values of the Indus signs are surprising and far beyond the possibilities of the most daring phantasy. At the same time many problems of the Rg-Veda could be solved or new insights be won.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents Sri Aurobindo's views on linguistics in general and on Sanskrit in particular. It compares Sri Aurobindo's approach to the problem of the origin of human speech with those of other philologists. Sri Aurobindo has extensively studied some of the word-families of Sanskrit to find out the original mind-impressions that the root-sounds have within them. Discovering these, he shows how Sanskrit has preserved the original primitive structure of language and the system of simple root-sounds. Some original writings of Sri Aurobindo on the subject are included. Contents: I. Study of Language and Sri Aurobindo II. The Origin and Development of Language: Sri Aurobindo's Theory III. Growth of Language from Seed-sounds IV. The Creative Word: A New Approach to the Study of Language V. A True Interpretation of the Vedas: Need for a New Science of Language
