The sealings as objects
q391.1 is a seal rolled on a sherd. Unfortunately the sherd is rather flat so the vessel shape cannot be determined. The interior of the sherd is blackened, probably with a thin coating of bitumen as we sometimes find on storage jars.
q174.2 is a sealing possibly for a bag as there appears to be part of a peg impression. Not clear if it was ever sealed with a cylinder seal.
q484.1 is a sealing, perhaps part of a jar sealing since there are string impressions on the reverse.
