To What Type of Logic Does the "Tetralemma" Belong?

Although the so called tetralemma might seem to be incompatible with any recognized scheme of logical inference, its four alternatives arise naturally within the anhomomorphic logics which have been proposed in order to accommodate certain features of microscopic (i.e. quantum) physics. This suggests that the possibility of similar, "non-classical" logics might have been recognized in India at the time when Buddhism arose.
