Dr. Gangesh Shah Gondwana
ABSTRACT:
The article discusses the efforts of scholars and linguists worldwide to decipher the Indus script, highlighting the challenges they faced. Researchers attempted to understand and read the script using various languages and cultural values but were unsuccessful. The article highlights Kangali’s work on deciphering the Indus script consistently, based on Koyavanshi Gonds’ cultural values and social structure. The article also highlights the unique root morphemes and grammatical characteristics of Gondi, distinguishing it from other Dravidian languages. The author analyzed Indus signs and Kangali’s statements on Indus Valley Civilization, gaining confidence in deciphering and explaining texts. It discusses why Koitoors’ rich language and unique socio-cultural legacy were overlooked due to differences in Indian politics and arguments. The author highlights the natural origins, knowledge, philosophy, and expansion of the Koitoors, a multi groups of people from South Asia and discusses the development of language and social systems, which are still prevalent today. Gondi Punemi Muth Lingo Manters reveal ancient Gandrajyas, rivers, forests, and mountains in the ancient Koyamoorideep comprising of regions of the Indian boundary and beyond Pakistan and Afghanistan. The Koya people’s knowledge of the earth’s division into Andodeep and Gandodeep formed the Pangaea dai (earthmother) and their evolution phases and development based on the oldest terminology. This information supports scientific research and finding with oral legends and folklore.
