| Description | poor impression of seal with standing figurines. Matthews: Shapeless clay lump with bad surface. Nippur, no locality. 32 (ext) x 32 (ext). Three men in dresses open in front, in martial attitude with curved swords. The central man's dress is flounced. Rhombs above between their heads, the one on the right overlapping an inscription line, perhaps due to distortion. Underneath, frieze centered on small volute-tree; the traces on the right are compatible with a winged sphinx. |
