Description
This is a cylinder seal illustrating a seated man and woman with a seven petal rosette between them and a shrine.
A cylinder seal is a small round cylinder, typically about one inch (2 to 3 cm) in length, engraved with written characters or figurative scenes or both, used in ancient times to roll an impression onto a two-dimensional surface, generally wet clay.
