Possible jar stopper, that is fragmented with three impressed circles (.7cm in diameter) and part of a fourth along the break. Fabric is heavily tempered, traces of burning on the rough obverse of the object. Possible imprint of a string can be seen on the back.

Seal impression, almost complete, has several chips around edge. Obverse comprised of overlapping pieces of clay and slightly smoothed. Impressions of fingerprints and possible textile. Four seal impressions: two scenes or two parts of the same seal. A cylinder seal was used as stamp seal here. In the deepest impression, imprints of the vertical grooves on the seal's top edge are visible. Two scenes show god with right foot on symbolic mountain. His arm is bent at the elbow and slightly extended. In front, facing him is supplicant figure in long skirt with a raised arm, head obscured. The other scene shows upper parts of the bodies of two figures, one of which is wearing seven tiered, horned crown.
