Sealings
The most astonishing and important finds of the OH2 excavations were the numerous clay sealings. The sealings preserved a variety of impressions that indicate the kind of object that was sealed. Based on the excavators observations it appears that the sealings were mostly used on movable objects such as jars, retaining cord, wood and ceramic impressions. Some of the sealings also preserved cylinder seal impressions which are discussed in the glyptic section. The 35 sealings are categorized below. Some sealings may appear in more than one category; for example, the peg and cord impressions are often co-occur due the process of sealing that involved wrapping a cord around a peg.
