Starting with the origin of the Sanskrit language formulated borrowing from the local Dravidian and Mundalanguages, the Indo-Iranian connections are explored in the context of myths and legends. The connectionbetween the Rigveda text and the Indus Culture is described, making use of the Indus seals. The non-Vedictraditions in the RV text are traced to present day folk performances. Some Rigvedi...

The Dravidians had their own tradition of writing. It would appear that they introduced writing to the Indus Valley. They continued to use this writing on their pottery in South India and later punch-marked coins. This is supported by the discovery of writing in South India dating back to before 600 BC. In a recent paper Srinivasan et al. argue that the Indus Valley writing was a syllabic multi...

The aim of this article is to present a short outline of early Indian mathematics. I mean to summarize the results and contributions of Indian mathematics which were made in the period from the first civilization in Indian subcontinent to the 5 century AD when classical era of Indian mathematics began. Indus valley civilization The first use of mathematics in the Indian subcontinent was in the ...

Indus Canyon is one of the most prominent sub-aqueous features of the Indus Delta. Indus River, originating from the Manasarovour Lake, hosting at the foot of high Himalayan Mountains Glaciers, forms a huge delta after travelling more than 300 km at the north eastern coastline of the Arabian Sea. In view to assess the temporal geomorphic change associated with the Indus Canyon, a study has been...

The Indus fan is the most pronounced and extensive physiographic and sedimentary feature of the Arabian Sea as well as it is the second largest submarine fan in the world. It has developed off the passive continental margin of Pakistan and India, covering an area of about 1.1 x10 km which makes it one of the largest sediment bodies in the ocean basins, totalling ~5 x 10 km in volume. The presen...

This paper reports the measurement of high energy neutron component (E > 50 MeV) carried out at the Indus-1 (450 MeV) and Indus-2 (2.5 GeV) electron accelerators (RRCAT, Indore, India). The study is based on the registration of neutron induced fission fragments from bismuth radiators in the adjoint solid polymeric track detectors. These bismuth fission detector (BFD) stacks are exposed at the i...
