Earlier inv.nr. CK 373. The intaglio represents a type of Hermes which was popular in the Late Hellenistic and Roman times, whereas the ring has the identical form with that of a gold finger ring from Alexandria ascribed to the seventh century AD in Segall, Benaki, no. 228, pl. 44. The stone is probably of earlier date, re-set in a new ring in Byzantine times.
