| Description | CBS Register: Babylonian seal cylinder, soapstone PBS XIV: The worshiping of a seated goddess with hand extended below the crescent. She has the usual horned mitre, hair tied in a loop, flounced robe, and a seat with three legs on one side resting on a dais. The scorpion in front is probably the emblem of Ishhara-Ishtar. The divine attendant, with the same mitre and hair and a plaited shawl covering one shoulder, leads by the hand the shaven and shorn worshiper in a fringed shawl. Both adore with their free hand up. “Azag-Nannar//royal messenger//son of Lugal-magurri.” There was a patesi of Ur of the same name: Lugalmagurri. Concave cyl. seal. Serpentine, 27 x 14 mm. |
