A99 (-1) A12.89 in A12 UGR but not any si labeled A12.89.1. In A12 UGR A12.89 is considered a small part of a tablet and a small part of its envelope. Not a glyptic but listed here. GB should look at the photos and describe any signs preserved and to double check whether or not the tablet and/or envelope were ever sealed.

A99 in A12 ugr N824 catalog
zt To D-Z in MZ16
A99 is human figure facing left with left arm raised, unclear figures. This "is" describes the drawing of A12.102 but the "is" now in the A12 UGR is very different and much more detailed also the "ds" in the A12 UGR is very different
A99 ds oval shaped sealing
A99 I think we should keep my is and ds in the A12 UGR and not add the above. I also think we should eliminate the pencil drawing now in the glyptics book.

ds three rollings rolled in TIP, peg impression which has two sharp edges not quite at right angles to each other
is lowest rolling unclear, middle rolling: façade of winged gate with one wing preserved, wing filled with vertical lines and is unusual in the comparative literature because the wings slant downward,
A99 drawing by Fonda needs to be revised: not in drawing building placed on the back of a bull (not preserved enough to tell if it is standing or reclining), bull ear large and prominent, one elongated horn extended over top of head (it is possible that this is not a horn but rather an arm and hand extended over the head of the animal)
st bull neck is clearly modeled with detailed hair pattern on the front of the neck, the carving is diagonal with respect to the background but the beveled edge is not carved.

Second rolling rolled at right angle to the first rolling. Part of table, stacked objects on top of table and part of tall pole with object on top

q 538.1
A99 photos in A12 UGR not same as drawing
nt below is a description of the drawing labeled with this number but photos of this in the A12 UGR don't appear to be the same seal rolling.The rolling in the photograph appears to be a seated figure facing left with long hair. However it is possible that this figure is a bullman but if the figure has long hair hanging down his back then it is not a bullman. Behind this figure is an inscription box with unclear signs; the box may have an animal facing right below; if this is correct then the scene could be similar to k2, q2 or h4.
ds reverse peg impression and cord impressions
is obverse two rollings: lower rolling bearded hero with body facing left and head frontal, his arms in a fighting position with his right arm raised and left arm lowered. behind him is an inscription box with a uru sign visible. Upper rolling lower body of a rampant bull with long tail facing left, lower body of a second animal with long tail facing right.

q 538.1
nt the cuneiform sign in the photo shown in the A12 book is clearly different from the one given in the drawing, and it does not seem that the difference may be explained as a result of the rolling action. It would seem that there is a mistake in numbering, and that these are two different items. The label on the drawing says "A12q528 1-1" which also suggests that we are dealing with two different items.
