Each seal would have a unique design engraved onto its surface, depicting mythological scenes, religious symbols, or scenes from daily life. These designs served as a personal emblem or signature when rolled onto clay or wax to seal documents, containers, or doors. Ancient Middle Eastern Artifacts And Historical Collectibles.
