families about 900 years ago. He brought 67 tablets with him.

    Professor Hevesy says that Baron Heine-Geldern, Professor of the Vienna University has written to him that he found certain relations between the native culture of New Zealand from which the inhabitants of Easter island seem to have originated, and Neolithic culture of North China.

    Professor F. W. Thomas in reviewing the 3 vols. of Sir John Marshall's Mohenjo-Daro, compared the Indus script with the earliest Chinese writing in which he recognized a number of similar symbols.

    Professor Shirokogoroff has written to Mon. Hevesy from Pekin; "As experiment I have shown your characters, after explaining their origin, to the Chinese who are familiar with ancient Chinese writings. They recognize it as 'Chinese,' and they read the letters in Chinese. It is at least very curious and perhaps significant. I hope to show them to the competent Chinese."

    We should not forget that at the end of Paleolithic and at the beginning of Neolithic period a mixture of races existed in Indo-China as perhaps nowhere else at that period.

    Professor Hevesy compares the features and position of crossed legs of a person found on Easter island tablet with nearly the same figure found on kmer art relics found in Indo-China. Another form of similarity is the arch on the tablets. The Polynesians knew nothing or very little as the people of Mohenjo Daro knew; he has found only two instances^__its form with the two blended ends and the little projecting centre is the same. He comes to the only conelusion that the writings of the Indus and Oceania belong to the same stock.

    From above it will be seen that there is no doubt that the signs on the tablets at Easter island and the seals at Mohenjo Daro and Harappa are similar. The similarity is not chance. My theory (only theory, I have no positive proofs) is that the Panis mentioned in the Rig Veda, who had the wandering lust, must have carried the writings of Sapta-Sindhu, Old Punjab and Sindh, to Assam, Indo-China and Australia.

    These Panis or Vaniks, a branch of the Aryan race, lived on the eastern coast of Sapta Sindhu. These merchants had
