Ink drawings of two scarabs and an oval seal design, mounted together on a white card — Photograph: Swedish Cyprus Expedition, 1927–31. Medelhavsmuseet, Stockholm, C05070b. Public domain (CC0).

Description

Three ink drawings are mounted together on a white card. At left, a scarab is drawn from above, with a segmented head, wing cases and a central dividing line; at top right, a side view shows its flat base in layers. At bottom right, an oval outline holds a vertical sign, a dot and a recumbent animal-like figure, and a handwritten number is partly visible at the lower edge.
