Cylinder seal.Two tiered design of which the upper half is missing. The registers are divided by a rope-like border made up of horizontally placed "v" shaped marks enclosed in an upper and lower line. Lower section: figure with torso presented frontally with bird-like head and "beak" nose, faces left. He wears a belted costume with skirt marked with pleats or fold lines. The arms with elbows bent stretch out to grasp on the left side a rampant horned animal with head turned back. On the right side he holds by the arm of a semi kneeling figure also with bird-like head and "beak" nose. He is dressed in a belted, fold-over kilt, on his right side he appears to be holding the horn of a seated stag placed facing left but head turned backwards and in between them a spread eagled bird/eagle. Above each wing a drill hole circles; in the field above, over the right shoulder of the kneeling figure in a leaf shaped object. Helen Merrillees catalogue 1995.
