Transcription

Seal impression No 272.

(Mag. plus 3.). Long axis 2.25 cms.

 

[ 𓂀 ]                                    (N)

 

 

See Nos 267, 268, 269, 270, 271, 272, 283, and 320d.

 

The Seal is remarkable for delicacy of execution. 
The motivesic is Egyptian, yet the technique <like the oval> is strangely

Non-Egyptian – it calls to mind Mycenaean or

Aegean gem-engraving.
