People often see modern interpretations of Akkadian period shell cylinder seals, which showcase women lying on beds with bull's legs, scorpions and vessels alongside stags divided by date palms. A cylinder seal is a small round cylinder, usually about one inch in length, engraved with written characters or figurative scenes, sometimes both, used long ago to create an impression on a two-dimensional surface, typically wet clay.
