Description

1st millennium BC-1st millennium AD. A mixed group of bronze discoid stamp seals including five accompanied by typed and signed notes by W.G. Lambert, late Professor of Assyriology, University of Birmingham, 1970-1993 which state: (2012) 'Stamp Seal of Bronze 234 x 24 x 10 mm. This is a flat disc with loop handle, pierced, from the same sheet metal, attached to the back. The face shows a deeply engraved stag in a flying gallop. This is reported to have come from west-central Asia, and it fits the area and date c. 300-1 B.C. It has some incrustation on the surface which could be removed, but is in very good condition.' (T-857) 'Stamp Seal of Bronze 26 x 27 x 9.5 mm. This is a round disc with loop handle, now broken, on the back. The face is engraved with a standing horned animal with one front paw raised, and above, under and in front of it various not certainly identified items. This comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 300 B.C. - 400 A.D. It is an unusual type and is in fair condition.' (D-8) 'Stamp Seal of Bronze 24 x 24 x 13 mm. This is a flat disc cut from sheet metal with a pierced handle from the same material fixed on the back. It is round. The design shows a standing bird in the centre, something not yet identified in front of it and above it a crescent and to the side a hatched shape. The whole design is put within a circle of intertwining band. This is a rare seal from wets central Asia, c. 500-100 B.C. It is in excellent condition.' (D-6) 'Stamp seal of Bronze 27 x 27 x 10 mm. This is a round disc with sheet metal handle on the back, not pierced. The design shows a walking horned animal, and above its back something not altogether clear, also various filling motifs in front and under its body. This comes from west central Asia and dates to c.1000-500 B.C. It is in very good condition.'; (Q-37) 'Bronze Disk, 27 x 27 x 6.5mm This is a round disk with a 'milled' edge, on the back of which a loop of strip metal is attached. The design on the face consists of a standing horned animal facing a tall slender tree, two crosses, one above the back, one between the legs of the animal, and a row of nine big dots under and behind the animal. This comes from west central Asia and most probably dates to c. 1400-1700 A.D. It is a button, no doubt for a formal garment such as a uniform. It is in very good condition.' 45 grams total, 23-27mm (1"). The Signo collection, the property of a West London businessman, formed in the late 1980s-early 1990s; item numbers 2012, D-6, D-8, Q-37, T-857; academically researched and catalogued by the late Professor Lambert in the early 1990s.
