Wood impressions on flat bottom, one strand of rope impression. Parts of four rollings of the same seal found on the exterior; one of these rollings crosses two others. Design: Double register of animals separated by a register line; an animal file of the same type of animal all walking in the same direction. The animals have short ears and short tails; perhaps they are caprids, but the eyes are shown very large. A single animal file is Seen on a seal from Tell Chuera (Moortgat and Moortgat-Correns 1978 abb. 6a-b; this is also rolled on a door sealing). A seal with a double register but with a variety of animals walking in a file also comes from Chuera (ibid., abb.12a- b). Seals with a double register appear both in ED I1 and ED 111 seals but usually have human figures included. (See, for example, Porada 1948 PI. XVI:102,104, showing a double register of animals all going in the same direction, ED 111.) [Input: ZJ226_rL_si.j] |
