| Description (summary) | 1988-01-01 | mKB | The flat portion against the wood of the door comes to a rounded end, indicating that it is complete on one end. One strand of rope impression is preserved. Design: The upper surface is not well preserved; the trace of a beautifully upcurving tail (perhaps of a lion) and the hind quarters of another animal also with an upturned tail. The seal is at least 1.3 cm. high. Upwardly curving tails are found in ED I11 and early Akkadian seals. [Input: ZJ226_rL_si.j] |
