Where it stands

Still possibleIts tests haven't settled it: one piece of evidence for, none against. It needs two reviews to be accepted.

What it predicts

  • Resemblances go beyond simple geometric shapes that any marking system would share.
  • Intermediate sites and dates bridge the gap of more than a millennium between the Indus and the Iron Age Tamil sites.

What would rule it out

  • Resemblances are confined to simple shapes, and no intermediate material exists.
