It was rolled upside down with respect to the jar. This sherd comes from a Wet Smooth ware jar. Design: Human figure facing a scorpion which he seems to be holding by the tail. Behind him is a long necked animal with elaborately patterned horns, perhaps a deer. The carving is very angular; this can especially be seen in the body of the human and the scorpion. The legs of the animal and its horns have a more linear quality. Based on the carving technique this seal should be dated to ED II. [Input: ZJ226_rL_si.j] |
