Description (summary) 2010-08-04 jW possible seal impression on a clay sealing which has clear string impressions on the reverse side. [Input: U804JW.j]
2015-02-25 mKB From the photograph it appears that there are two rollings preserved; the lower rolling is unclear. The upper rolling shows a standing figure with arms raised holding two horned rampant animals. The animal to the left of the standing figure appears to be reversed. The style is linear with the only modeled volumes preserved being the body of the human and the head of the reversed animal. The eye of the animal on the right of the hero is made with a circle with a dot in the center. A hero holding two animals is an ED III theme also shown in the K1 seal impressions (Mozan 1 M1 169, M1 177). [Input: ZA225CJC.j]
