Description

Three corroded silver rings with heavy hoops sit in a row across the top, the centre one with a pale oval bezel engraved with a design. Below are three small pale objects with incised or raised designs: one shows a figure-like motif, one a horizontal pattern of lines, and one a figure with lines beside it. All six are photographed flat against a plain light-grey background.

Description, scan 2
Three dark, tarnished rings with plain hoops and oval bezels are shown on a pale ground, the middle bezel holding a pale oval inset. Below them are three seal impressions in light grey material: the left shows a small figure beside an animal-like form, the middle shows fine lines across an oval field, and the right shows an animal-like shape with a raised head. The engraved details are hard to read in the photograph.
