The object illustrated in Plate XVII, and Fig. 1, would perhaps never have emerged from the obscurity of a description in small type in an official catalogue but for Mr. Dawkins' discovery discussed on pp. 9 f. of this volume. In the British Museum Catalogue of Terracottas (p. 443) it is described as follows, under the number E 93: ‘Hemispherical seal of clay, with eight impressions of gems stamped over it, five representing a lion attacking a goat; another, a bearded head to r, with inscription; the other two are plain stamps.’ It was acquired in Egypt by the Rev. Greville Chester, and purchased from him in 1891.
