These people believe that the Indus script represents an ancient form of the Dravidian language family, which is the language family spoken in much of South India today.

And the proponents of this theory point to that small pocket of Dravidian speaking people in the North, actually near Afghanistan, and they say that perhaps, sometime in the past, Dravidian languages were spoken all over India and that this suggests that the Indus civilization is perhaps also Dravidian.

But does this prove that these seals contain Dravidian names based on planets and star constellations?

And that could be translated into mey meen, which is the old Dravidian name for the planet Saturn.

In Dravidian languages, the word for fish is meen which happens to sound just like the word for star.

And so seven stars would stand for elu meen, which is the Dravidian word for the Big Dipper star constellation.

Similarly, there's another sequence of six stars, and that translates to aru meen, which is the old Dravidian name for the star constellation Pleiades.
