Indus Seal: CL1 Practice + Free Grading Sheet (Blended Pack)

This pack comes from my ongoing Indus Script project: a reproducible, four-lane method for reading seals—ORI (reading direction), OVR (animal vs. text placement), T (words/lexemes), and AID (animal classifier)—with a traffic-light confidence rubric (HIGH/MED/LOW). The goal is simple: make the process teachable, testable, and repeatable. For context and credibility, I’ve included the CL2 slide from my New Delhi conference materials and a redacted ASI thank-you letter (invitation ≠ endorsement).

This is a blended learning pack: CL2 is already graded so you can see the finish line, and CL1 is your practice—you be the linguist and apply the same steps.

How to get the Grading Sheet:

How it works (quick):

1. Learn the cues with the Grading Sheet (ORI/OVR/T/AID + confidence).
2. Practice on CL1 (student page), then compare with the CL1 example key.
3. Review the finished CL2 sample (student + worked key) to see a complete run.
