→ This impression compares closely in size and motif with the impressions of the seal of the Uruk χρεοφύλαξ preserved on five bullae, one dated 92 S.E. (Johansen 1930, 45, Abb. 16, Nr. 10), another 94 S.E.(CBCY 5 4 [https://collections.peabody.yale.edu/search/Record/YPM-BC-002583]-1 [/hbtin/images/CBCY/CBCY04-01.png]), the remainder undated (AUWE 20, 53-1, 197-1, 433-1). Rostovtzeff (1932, 30) observed that since no similar figure occurs on Seleucid coins, the motif probably represents a statue of the king (Antiochus III) as a hero, citing "the bronze statue of a Hellenistic ruler in the Museo delle Terme." If uninscribed seals bearing "official types" did belong to high officials (Rostovtzeff 1932, 53; McDowell 1935b, 207-8), then this seal would more likely have belonged to witness #11, a descendant of Aḫ-ūtu; members of this clan held the highest administrative offices in Uruk during this period (McEwan 1981b, 27; cf. Wallenfels 2015, 75).

→ The nude hero was represented embracing or wrestling with bulls in contest scenes on cylinder seals from the Early Dynastic through Old Babylonian periods. Human-headed bulls were depicted in much the same fashion. The hero is first represented slaying a humped Indian bull on Akkadian cylinder seals (Collon 1982b, 37-38; Collon 1986, 87-90). Middle Assyrian and Neo-Assyrian seals show heroic figures, now variously clad, restraining or slaying bulls. (Cf. Moortgat 1942, 69, Abb. 31, p. 79, Abb. 57; Moortgat 1944, 36, Abb. 34 [Middle Assyrian]. Porada 1948a, Nos. 617-19, 754, 755, 778 [Neo-Assyrian].) Two Archaic period gems show the Greek hero Herakles, wrapped in a lion's skin with one paw dangling between his legs, wrestling to submission the river god Achelous incarnated as a human-faced bull (Boardman 1970a, Pls. 330, 331). The dependence of the exploits of the Greek hero upon Mesopotamian originals is well established (cf. Akurgal 1966, 188-89, and nn. 742-46). Note the figure on an Akkadian cylinder seal (Collon 1982b, No. 213) of a nude fertility god with stalks of grain sprouting from his shoulders facing a goddess of vegetation: an animal's skin is draped over his shoulders and down his back with two of the paws dangling between and in front of his legs; he holds a club horizontally in his lowered right hand, two spherical objects in his left hand and a stick in the crook of his left arm. Compare Nos. 40:D and 47, 49, below.

→ Nazi-Muruttaš was the cuneiform scribe (ṭupšarru) of four known private business documents, ca. 35-41 S.E.; three are from Uruk (YOS 20 18 [https://collections.peabody.yale.edu/search/Record/YPM-BC-036498], YOS 20 17 [https://collections.peabody.yale.edu/search/Record/YPM-BC-036505], YOS 20 19 [https://collections.peabody.yale.edu/search/Record/YPM-BC-036522] ) and one is from the otherwise unknown Antioch on the Ištar Canal (YOS 20 20 [https://collections.peabody.yale.edu/search/Record/YPM-BC-036488]). Doty (1977, 195) suggested that Nazi-Muruttaš, who bore a Kassite name, may have been an immigrant to Uruk from Nippur, an important administrative center during the Kassite period, where such names may have tended to survive; see now, Frazer 2013.
