Seal, symbol of Inana, feeding of caprids by high dignitary

In the late Uruk period (late 4th/early 3rd millennium BC), gods were often represented by symbols. For example, on the seal on the left, two so-called bundles of reed rings, symbols of the goddess Inana, frame the feeding of caprids by a high dignitary. He, dressed in a knee-length skirt and a headgear with a wide brim, feeds the goddess's animals with flowering branches. This is located at the Pergamon museum.
