This is a pictograph of someone holding a noose. The noose is the key identifier for this Indus sign. Therefore, Mahadevan's sign number 31 is the noun catcher.

Comment:
I rather like seal H-94 because it appears to tell us how to capture a tiger. The motif incorporates a basin, which I take to be a water bowl. Hence, my interpretation is that the tiger would be caught when he went to drink.
