From a wooden harp. The head (?) that of a calf rather than a bull is in good condition except that the horns are both damaged: the eyes are of lapis and shell and a triangular piece of lapis is inlaid in the forehead. The collar was of white shell triangles and lapis square. The shell plaques have, above, 3 rows of geometric design, each row on a separate strip of shell: then a figure scene, a single strip of geometrical design, another figure scene and 2 strips of geometrical design at the base. The figure scenes are in the mosaic, the white shell figures silhouetted against a composite background of lapis. In upper, a figure seated left holds in his raised right hand a cup while an attendant stands before him. In lower scene, 2 figures advance right, each with his hands raised and clasped in front of him. All the figures wear the fleeced skirt with a belt which forms a tail-like tassel behind: all are clean shaven as to the face but the standing figure s have a lock of hair hanging down the back of the head.Woolley's descriptionDescription (Modern)Shell inlay from a harp (30-12-484)Modern descriptionFind Context (Catalog Card)PG Material (Catalog Card)ShellMaterial as described by WoolleyMuseum Number (UPM Date Reg Number)30-12-484Measurement (Catalog Card)L. 180mm, W. 62mm1301http://www165.123.244.137/subject/1301/1247MuseumUniversity of Pennsylvania MuseumObject TypeFurnitureIconographyBirdIconography tagged by Penn Museum research team.IconographyBedIconography tagged by Penn Museum research team.TechniqueMold PressedTechnique tagged by Penn Museum research team.Season Number02: 1923-1924TechniqueIncisedMaterialTerracottaU Number1247Description (Archival)Model bed, 2 legs missing, ducks & cockerelsDescription (Catalog Card) Portion terracotta model probably the head (or foot) of a bed, of which 2 legs remain.

UE X: a bare-headed worshipper is introduced to a seated diety holding a very small conical object. The seal is inscribed to Samas and Aa. If this is the solar deity, he is apparently beardless, with short hair and a turban tied about his head. A lock or a loose fillet descends past his ear onto his chest. He is draped in a flounced robe. There is a squatting monkey at his knees and behind him a small nude servant holding a buckled shaft or club. His throne is built like a triple-recessed gate. The assistant leads the worshipper with one hand, and holds in the other a crescent on a short staff. He wears a flounced robe like the god, but there is on his head a distinct pair of round horns and again the curious line descending on the chest. The worshipper wears short hair and beard (?) and a pleated robe. Before him are placed the ampulla and libra, particularly well designed. Below the inscription, nude hunters, club in hand, attack a winged dragon rampant. Here again a small line connects head and chest. Grey steatite cylinder.Description (Catalog Card)Cylinder seal.
