Afghanistan
2.8 cm high

This lapis lazuli cylinder seal depicts Gilmagesh and the lion.

Gilmagesh is a legendary being present in the epic tales of ancient Mesopotimia. He is tall, handsome and strong.

Here he almost effortlessly maintains dominion over the lion. Tales portray him encountering and slaying mountain lions, a testament to his courage and strength.

If there is interest, I will provide other details/information available prior to purchase.
