broken on all sides, and even the reverse seems not to bear any impressions but to be broken. The upper border of the impression is visible, but the impression is broken below. The material seems to have been secondarily fired, due to its weight proportional to size and the strength of the object. |

The impression consists of two elements: a human-like figure and a cross-hatch pattern in a halfcircle. The figure has an elongated head, exagerated in the horizontal. The shoulders and hips are visible, while the waist does not leave an impression. To the left of the head is a jagged line which may or may not be part of the seal. The cross-hatch impression is in an elongated half-circle with the flat side of the circle pointing up. The lines of the cross hatch are parallel and perpendicular to the border of the seal impression. The cross-hatch pattern seem to have a shaft below, as if the whole was a standard. This shaft is being held by the figure. |
