This seal iconography has a rampant horned caprid whose body is facing left but head is turned back to view the rampant lion behind who is attacking him. The caprid has one leg almost touching a mountain-like elevation. The lion is facing the caprid and has one paw on its back.
Behind the lion is a human in a short skirt facing left so facing the lion.
Behind this human is a short evergreen type tree and after this tree there is the mountain with a large plant growing out of the top.
There are other Urkesh seal impressions with an animal with one raised leg touching a mountain with the same two types of plants associated with this elevation, see for example A1.147 and A5.115. [Input: ZKx03 gB.j] |
