Indus Valley Script Falsifiability Ledger v3: Collaboration-Ready Multi-Rater Sheet for CL2 (Buffalo) and Related Seals

This record shares a collaboration-ready falsifiability ledger (v3) for Indus Valley script research, designed around the CL2 “buffalo” seal but reusable across the corpus. The one-page sheet standardizes ORI/OVR choices, separates transcription from word-level claims (T/W), tracks persons/animals/objects (P/A/O), and uses simple High/Medium/Low traffic lights with a neutrality rule and paired peer checks (R1/R2) so agreement and disagreement become visible data. Author: Michael Grasa is an independent researcher and creator of the Indus Script Falsifiability Ledger, an Emergent Ventures Fellow (Mercatus Center, George Mason University), and presenter of this framework at the 2025 “Discipline of Ancient Scripts” conference in New Delhi.
