M, 10, 11). The Tell Asmar seal is, however, certainly of Indian workmanship. Not only are the animals upon it Indian, the elephant, rhinoceros, and gharial, or fish-eating crocodile, none of which ever appears on Sumerian or Akkadian seals, but the style of the carving also is undoubtedly Indian. - [Previous: c11.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.mackay-1935.c11.3) - [Next: c11.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.mackay-1935.c11.5) - [Up: c11](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.mackay-1935.c11) ## Cites (1) - [Mohenjo-daro](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.mohenjo-daro) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.mackay-1935.c11.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.mackay-1935.c11.4) · Pramāṇa
