«429. No. 2. Found at Jokha/Umma. A typical record of the temple offerings.After the tablet was written, and while the clay was still soft, the temple scribe rolled over the entire thing his cylindrical stone seal, and the seal impression made it impossible to change the record. The seal impression bears in raised characters the name of the scribe and of his father, the seated figure of a deity and the standing figures of priests.
