TURKMENIA, Altyn Depe, prior to 2000 BC. A serrated edge around a marble stamp seal with drill design of a mighty god or warrior in combat with serpent-like monsters. A wonderful patina covers the stone, a strange inset square on the back represents the placement for a handle. D: 5 cm. Sarianidi, op. cit., p. 224 top for similar style and pp. 256-257. A GREAT SEAL!
