Stefano Zamblera, 2018: A Dongba Pictographs Dictionary with Iconographic Index Plates Dictionary of Dongba pictographs implemented in categories sorted by iconographic index plates of BASIC pictographs. Iconographic and graphic study of such corpus of glyphs evinced two distinguished sets of pictographs which could be named BASIC and COMPLEX. BASIC PICTOGRAPHS are those glyphs made by one and just one iconographic unit (signifier) that conveys its meaning through its pictorial resemblance to the physical object meant. BASIC PICTOGRAPHS are assembled together making COMPLEX PICTOGRAPHS, alias COMPLEX UNITS OF SIGNIFIERS. As any BASIC PICTOGRAPH consists in a signifier written by a minimal graphic unit, identification of BASIC PICTOGRAPHS categories to gather them coincides with the study and identification of a set of ICONOGRAPHIC PRIMES into Dongba pictographs corpus. ICONOGRAPHIC PRIME is then used in the making of iconographic index plates for BASIC PICTOGRAPHS.
