• The letters are very large in size, visible from a distance, and are part of the Indus script (which remains undeciphered).

• It was found near the northern gateway of the city, suggesting it may have served as a nameplate, public notice, or symbolic signage.

• Ganweriwala – An important but less excavated site in Pakistan; no such inscription discovered.
