Black steatite seal of the bare breasted goddess Inanna and a three register inscription. The goddess is wearing the layered skirt of ancient Sumeria with her hands rised in devotion. The inscription has the owner’s name in the first register (“ur” + ?), likely his father’s name in the second register, and the third proclaims his devotion to a god or goddess (“servant of” + ?). This class of seals is called the “erotic series” due to their subject matter.

 

The heavily worn ends are usually the result of surface-find seals used by Arab women as ornamental beads. Many of the cylinder seals in commerce come from such Bedouin necklaces.

 

Vagyis az ábrázolás minősége, a rajztudás ez esetben semmit sem árul el a pecséthenger koráról
