An initial assessment by experts identified the script reading as &#8220;pusarakhitasa,&#8221; meaning &#8220;the one protected by Pushya,&#8221; said to be one of the most auspicious zodiac signs in Indian astronomy, the department said.<\/p>\n<p> The other ring found with the same skeletal remains is a plain gold ring without any pattern.
