Small Stone Objects, including Stone Beads

Three beads inscribed with short texts of Ashurbanipal were found in the Treasury of the Persian capital Persepolis.^[78] Two of these small inscribed stones — a polished banded white, grey, and pink chalcedony cylinder and a grey scorched onyx eyestone — bear dedication inscriptions to the goddess Sutītu.
