Rao in his book "Indus Script Deciphered" states that the identity of "Makha" in "Makhanāśana" on the Pashupati seal is vague, when really it is just another name the Harappan people had for the war god Kartikeya (the son of Shiva, who is Makhanāśana). sandsofthesaraswati.blogspot.com/2025/10/the-ha…

The triad of Shiva, Shakti, and Skanda, central to later Puranic Hinduism, may find precursors in the religious practices of the Harappans, who appear to have venerated them through fire rituals and seasonal sacrifices. - sandsofthesaraswati.blogspot.com/2025/10/the-ha…
The work of Gary Beckman, Trevor Bryce & Eric Cline 2011 makes it more or less certain that the Hittite exonym for Mycenaeans in 1400 BCE is a potential source of Yavana (यवन) in the Vedic corpus. If so, it marks a Vedic-Hittite-Mycenaean axis of IE literary langs!

This was mythologised in ancient texts as Shiva (the Sun) swallowing up Shukra (its heliacal setting) since he knew how to revive the dead, releasing him later (heliacal rising) as his bodily fluids - rains that fertilise the land (Rudra-Shiva is associated with storms and rain).

The synodic period of Venus is ~584 days. Hence, once seen in the early part of the monsoon season, only after nearly three years would it again be visible in the beginning of the monsoon season. The near three-year cycle is known presently as "El Nino Southern Oscillation".

The Indus script's decipherment by the late archeologist S. R. Rao (who discovered and excavated IVC sites like Lothal) gives the reading on the Pashupati seals as "makhanāśana", and on another seal with a similar figure as "īśāna", both of which are names of Shiva in the vedas.

The use of the decimal number system (e.g. on this measuring scale) and a possible connection between the Brahmi and Indus scripts may imply that the Brahmi numerals, which were to go on to develop into the numerals we use today, originated in the Indus valley in around 2500 BCE.

excavations at Dholavira (~2600 BCE) also yielded a hollow shell instrument with 12 slits, which was used by astronomers and navigating sailors (as a sextant) for measuring angles and the position of stars in the twelvefold segments (rāśis) of the sky. bit.ly/3YVnauZ

The Pisces new Moon of the Chaitra month is the beginning of the Hindu new year because it's the same lunar day and month when lord Brahmā started creating the universe, a belief traceable to the Yajurveda where the creation of all celestial bodies occurs in Revatī nakṣatra. 1/n
