FIGURE 22. Indus Valley sealing, *ca.* 3000 B.C. India Office photograph. The deity seated cross-legged as in the later iconography is three-faced, and has been identified, probably rightly, with Śiva. He has as before a three-pointed, *triśūla*-like headdress. *Cf.* Marshall, *Mohenjodaro*, London (Probsthain), 1931, Pl. XII, Fig. 17, and p. 53f.
