Feathers of the outstretched wings are articulated. q 1217.3 A99 f306 df seal impression sh flat base but unusual in that there is a peg impression just above the base and above this two cord impressions wm red clay that crumbles easily with medium sized calcite inclusions ht 2.6 lg 4.4 th 2.0 nm measured with flat base at the bottom c# 5YR 5/6 co yellowish red is one rolling preserved and rolled in the classic manner from the flat base to the narrower top of the sealing (in this case broken). Unclear figure, figure facing right wearing a short skirt? with one hand on the neck of a rampant animal with body facing right and head facing left, perhaps a second animal after this first animal. st drill holes left visible for the head, eye in the center of the head is another small drill hole, some trace of a nose. i 71 A99 f296 df seal impression sh base uneven with unevenly rounded edges on obverse and reverse, one thick cord impression, rest broken wm red clay that crumbles easily ht 2.7 lg 4.7 th 2.3 nm measured with base at the bottom c# 2.5YR 5/6 co red is iconography is unclear because the seal was rolled when clay was too wet to hold the impression i 72 A99 f296 df seal impression sh two flat surfaces connected by a rounded edge, rest broken wm red clay that crumbles easily with large and small clacite inclusions ht 2.2 lg 4.6 th 1.7 nm measured with heads of figures in the most complete rolling upright c# 2.5YR 4/8 co red is two rollings: one rolling only unclear legs of figures. second rolling unclear flower or tree, human facing right with left hand holding a leg of a bird, below this figure are other small figures one holding a pole? in the upper part of the scene a bird with body frontal and head facing right, one short standing figure facing left, vertical line, standing figure facing right holding a horizontal pole over the head of a second figure facing right, this figure holds an implement in his right hand, in front of him is an unclear object.

Obverse is flat with a deeper impression where the seal was rolled wm red clay that crumbles easily with small to medium calcite inclusions ht 3.5 lg 2.7 th 1.8 nm measurements taken with peg impression at the top c# 2.5YR 5/8 co red is iconography is unclear because seal was rolled when the clay was too wet to hold the impression. This is also the cause of the deep impression along the edge of the rolling; the person who rolled the seal must have known that the seal was being impressed deeper than normal but for some reason did not rectify the situation.
