In Mesopotamia until the end of the first millennium BCE, cylindrical stone seals, pierced down the centre, were fitted with a stick and rolled over wet clay so that a continuous picture was created.2. They were carved by very skilled craftsmen, and sometimes carry writing : the name of the owner, his god, his official position, etc.3. A seal could be rolled on clay covering the the string\xa0knot of a cloth package or the mouth of a pot keeping the contents safe. When rolled on a letter written on a clay tablet, it became a mark of authenticity. So the seal was the mark of a city dweller\'s role in public life.
