An indus script variant has an inscription which has pictographic glyps of an arrow shooting man, but it also contains a glyph which resembles a much later Brahmi alphabet ''Sa''

It seems that variant scripts were prevalent here in these localities of Sindh after the Indus and Sarswati scripts and before the development and evolution of Sanskrit, Brahmi and other Indo-Aryan scripts. Most probably, this script was developed from the Indus script before or during the Vedic period after the rapid disappearance of Indus civilisation. It is believed that Sanskrit or other scripts of India had been developed from this variant of the Indus script.
