Calcite (limestone) cylinder seal; a goddess in a long striped robe stands with both hands raised behind a worshipper (the owner of the seal?) wearing a fringed robe and a skull-cap who stands with his right hand raised facing a warrior god. The god is bearded, wears a robe with a striped skirt and holds with a multiple mace or mace and sickle sword in his right hand and an axe over his left shoulder. Between the worshipper and the god is an altar with a palm-leaf and date clusters rising from it. The figure are elongated to fit the space left for them by the inscription. Shown with its impression.
