The Hindu has published a Coffee Table volume book on the Indus Civilization: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indus_Valley_Civilisation
"Citing epigraphist Iravatham Mahadevan who recorded similarities between the script in the Indus Valley and an early form of Dravidian language, Mr. Thennarasu said the State government has also allocated funds to study the possible links. Many puzzles about Harappan civilisation still need to be unravelled. Indus script and seals have been only partially deciphered and more explorations are essential to learn about the civilisation. Every archaeological excavation has provided new discoveries and artefacts right from the times of British archaeologist John Marshall, he added.
The 356-page book curated by T.S. Subramanian, former Associate Editor, Frontline, has about 600 photographs, maps and several illustrations. Besides articles by Mr. Subramanian, the book has articles by several scholars.
Appreciating the book as substantial work by The Hindu team, Mr. Ram recalled his involvement with the subject during a recent visit to the earliest site of the Harappan civilisation. "

Enjoy!

At the end, I included a verse by Kavignar Iniyan (Dr. A. Govindaraju), Vanchi Maanagar (Karur), Tamil Nadu:
பொள்ளாச்சி நா. கணேசனார் திருத்தசாங்கம்
கவிஞர் இனியன், வஞ்சி மாநகர் (கரூர்)
கொடி
செப்பேடு கல்வெட்டில் சீர்மிகும் ஆய்வாளர்
முப்போதும் சிந்தனை முன்வைப்பார்- அப்பால்
பகர வருவார் பணிவுடன் கையில்
மகர விடங்கர்க் கொடி. (10)
