 | 8747 | (none) | (none) | (none) | Cylinder seal. Marble. Mottled. 5 standing divinities all wearing high horned headdresses. One walks upon the mountain - left leg straight, right leg slightly bent at knee as in an attitude of climbing - in his right hand he holds a plume? Oblique lines on either side touching the shoulders and waist possibly the sun's rays? Facing him a divinity carrying an offering? in his left hand, behind a god carrying a gazelle. Beyond but facing the opposite direction a god Ea? with water flowing from eah shoulder and beyond again a god grasping a ladder, head turned towards Ea as if inviting him to ascend. Possibly this is the ladder of heaven which has already been ascended by all except these two divinities. |
