| Description | CBS Register: Babylonian seal cylinder in soapstone PBS XIV: The worshiping of a seated god, hand extended below the crescent and the sun star. He has a horned mitre, his hair tied in a loop, a flounced robe. His seat with three legs on one side rests on a dais. Behind him there is perhaps the curved weapon of Nergal (?) and in front a rampant lion – of Ninib, Ningirsu (?). The assistant goddess, with the same mitre, and hair, but a plaited robe covering one shoulder leads by the hand the shaven and shorn worshiper in a fringed shawl. Both adore with their free hand up. “Lugina, son of Nipadda.” Concave cyl. seal. Serpentine, 28 x 15 mm. |
