Oval seal or gem with a raised figure in low relief, photographed on a card mount — Photograph: Swedish Cyprus Expedition, 1927–31. Medelhavsmuseet, Stockholm, C04406e. Public domain (CC0).

Description

An oval engraved object, probably a seal or gem, shown close up within a pale oval ring on a card mount. A rounded form sits at the upper left and a taller figure-like shape rises in the centre, with diagonal striations at the lower left. The surface is grey and the relief is soft, so the design is hard to read.
