Abstract
It is shown that the Mohenjodaro Seal No. 420 is a representation of the four constellations corresponding to the four cardinal points of vernal equinox, summer solstice, autumnal equinox and winter solstice at the epoch of 3000 BC. Similarly it is shown that the Mohenjodaro Seal No. 430 represents the remarkable configuration of the sun, moon and five planets on 7th February, 3104 BCJ, which corresponds to the so called beginning of the astronomical Kaliyuga.
