Black calcite and quartz (siliceous limestone) cylinder seal; standard presentation scene; a shaven-headed worshipper, who wears a fringed robe and raises his right hand, is led by the hand by a goddess who wears a striped robe with a double-rolled hem and a head-dress with a single pair of horns (this is not always visible owing to wearing-down of the seal's surface). She raises her left hand and approaches a goddess who wears a similar head-dress and a flounced robe and who holds out her right hand. She sits on a double-box throne on a dias, beneath a crescent moon. Terminal, a framed inscription. The inscription was probably recut.
