content: "Engraved in two registers, which are separated by a line. Perhaps Syro-Hittite or Persian seal. The upper register may represent a religious procession. In the center, a figure standing driving a chariot. Left of this scene are two nude figures led by god in a long dress and conical head dress, holding the thunderbolt- perhaps the Hittite god Teshub-Adad. The mutilated lower register may depict a hunting scene. As noted in "Proceedings of the United States National Museum" v.69, art.4 (1926), p. 21, plate 17, no. 2.
