AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

濃い茶色の硬石から成る、精緻に刻まれた西アジア系の印章。半球状の形で、底面には平らでおおむね楕円形の面がある。この面には四肢動物の像が彫られており、横たわって肩越しにこちらを振り返っている姿として描かれている。解剖学的特徴は丁寧に刻まれており、細い脚が曲線を描く胴の下に折りたたまれ、耳は短く、尾も短い。印章のドームは吊るすための穿孔が開けられている。地表の付着物と年齢に一致する摩耗の痕跡があり、表面には欠け、傷、凹みなどが見られる。面の縁部および穿孔穴の周囲には欠けや打ち込みがある。印章は石で作られることが多いが、骨・象牙・ファイエンス・ガラス・金属・木材、さらには日干しあるいは焼成した粘土でも作られている例がある。古代世界では、印章は所有権の真正性を保証するものであり、法的取引や盗難から商品の保護において重要な役割を果たしてきた。動物をスタイライズした印章のお守りは、紀元前後期の文脈でメソポタミア全域で見つかっているが、 stamp seals(スタンプ印)と cylinder seals(筒印)が古代近東では主流のタイプであった。\n\n寸法: およそ L 1.6cm × W 1.1cm × H 1.5cm\n\n来歴: ロンドン・SM 旧蔵、コレクション 1970-2010。
