List of physical seals with original impressions

Below is a running tally of the physical seals with original impressions suggested in the literature or by members of the CDLI team.

Seal P272880 =? Envelope P359189

(see also seals P272873 and P272886), an Old Assyrian tablet with envelope, only hand copy of envelope.

Seal Delaporte 307 =? Tablet LB 2532

No published image of LB 2532, hand copy does not include seal legend, name of owner on BnF seal is only partly matches the information in the text on the tablet (not only is the name of the seal owner written differently on the seal and in the text, but different supplemen-tary information is given in the two: the tablet gives the owner’s title, whereas the seal his patronymic). The seal may have been re-carved in antiquity, or the impression may be incomplete, or worn (see Hallo 1973).
