This is an ancient Scythian Seal depicting a small bird. From the Scythian Tribe (Sasanian Empire) of ancient Persia, 19th Century BC, this seal was found in Afghanistan. Worn as a pendant, this iron ore seal has a 2mm hole, and a lovely standing small bird (sparrow?). 12mm diameter x 10mm thick. One in my collection of 30 seals, many stones, including carnelian, agate, iron ore, and jasper. All unique and highly collectible! The gold imprinted relief is silly putty, to show as clearly as possible the impression.
