Asset Overview

Neo-Assyrian clay tablet: containing a dated parivate contract, written in cuneiform, for the sale of a house by Sharru-lu-dari. The tablet has been impressed three times on obverse, between ruled lines 3 and 4, with a conoid or perhaps scaraboid seal. The impression shows a robed worshipper with both hands raised, standing facing left towards a star and crescent. The seal was chipped, both below the crescent and behind the worshipper, where there are traces of some other symbol.
