Bharat, name of a nation. Root: bharatiyo 'caster of metals', bharat 'metal alloy' in Indus Script

The trade in metals during the Bronze Age was transacted on the Tin Road from Meluhha, India to Haifa, Israel.
Casting metals was by using cire perdue (lost-wax) casting method -- dhokra, a gloss which is recorded in seals from Dholavira and Mohenjo-daro. Invention of alloys revolutionised Bronze Age thanks to the artisans of the Sarasvati-Sindhu (Hindu) civilization. A significant contribution was the invention of a writing system necessitated by the Bronze Age inventions and trade, using Meluhha hieroglyphs which provide clues to the invention of bharat, an alloy of copper, tin and zinc.
