272 SEAL CYLINDERS OF WESTERN ASIA. 
uncertain god is a figure in protuberant shent:, with a lion head like Sekhet; and 
following is a figure closely swathed in the mummy form of Osiris. In fig. 810 the 
male worshiper wears the shenti, while the winged goddess is closely draped to 
her ankles. Before her stands the worshiper in a round hat. There is a slender 
column branching at the top, on each side of which is the same bird-headed deity, 
holding in his hand what is probably a serpent. This again might be Horus, while 
the goddess is more Syrian in appearance, as is suggested by her dove. We see the 
serpents again held in the hand of an Egyptian deity such as Apis, with the head 
of a bull, in fig. 811. The other objects are a sphinx facing an asp over a lion, also 
a disk within a crescent. Again in fig. 812 we recognize an Egyptian style in the 
headdress worn by the two figures between which the worshiper stands, even if

they can not be safely identified with particular Egyptian divinities. We see the 
dove over the emblem of life and a lion over the guilloche, which is above a sphinx 
and an ibex. 
Figure 813 is another example of the Egyptian style. Two winged female 
figures face each other and hold each the emblem of serenity. Between them is a 
worshiper clothed in the shenti. There is also a guilloche, above and below which 
is a heraldic vulture with a long neck like a serpent, looped in a circle. As a simpler 
design we may notice fig. 814, where two ox-headed human figures face each other, 
each holding a sort of mace; and there is a rabbit over a bird; also fig. 815, where a 
long-skirted goddess holds a branch over a table and also holds a branch (omitted 
in drawing) in her other hand. Before her a figure in the short shenti holds his hand 
on an object on the table, as if presenting it, and behind her a similar bareheaded 
figure presents a bird. Between them is perhaps a fish, and the guilloche is between 
a griffin and an ibex. We may perhaps also include with the cylinders showing a 
preponderant Egyptian influence that seen in fig. 816. Here three figures, each 
dressed in the shenti and in an Egyptian headdress with a curved line each side 
of the hat, offer Egyptian emblems—the last a serpent—to a kneeling genius with 
a bird’s head and wings. In the register below them are two lions and a third 
uncertain animal; another portion of the cylinder shows a bull on one knee over
