HT Wa 1593: engraved schematic symbol Linear AB 81 KU. Scribe: Wa 93 |
| Motif: |
CMS II,6 28. A seal impression - likely from a lentoid soft-stone diagonally pierced -: two motifs seem mixed. From one side we see the "bird-lady", where both arms may be intended as wings; but the upper part of the woman represents a bucranium as well, where the eyes correspond to the breasts, the horns to the arms and the muzzle to the bodice |

From the same seal a sealing in MAF (94763)
