Item Details

Description

Old Babylonian White Marble Cylinder Seal with Cuneiform, c. 1900-1600 B.C.
A presentation scene is shown. On the right is a seated deity in hat and long robe, on padded stool, raising one hand. Facing him stands a worshipper with bare head and wearing long robe, raising one hand. On the left is a Lamma goddess raising both hands. There is a crescent in the sky and three fillers: ‘vessel’, ‘ball-staff’ and monkey. A three-line cuneiform inscription apparently named the ancient owner, but that has been largely scraped off, no doubt by a second owner in the ancient world. It is in an unusual stone for the period, but is worn apart from the erased inscription.
Comes with description and dating by Professor W.G. Lambert of the Birmingham University.

Size:2.3 cm L - 7/8 inch
Material:Marble
Culture:Old Babylonian, c. 1900-1600 B.C.
Provenance: Private British collection, acquired at a London auction.
