Seal from Amathus showing a raised pattern of crossing diagonal lines, curved strokes and small dots. — Photograph: Swedish Cyprus Expedition, 1927–31. Medelhavsmuseet, Stockholm, C05374aaa. Public domain (CC0).

Description

A small square seal is photographed face-on on a grey card mount, showing a raised design of crossing diagonal lines, curved strokes and small dots. Strong side lighting creates light and dark patches across the surface, and a curved edge runs along the lower left. The design fills most of the square, with a plain margin around it.
