EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from the Middle Minoan III Period to the Late Minoan I Period, dating back to approximately 1800 - 1450 BC. The cylinder seal, crafted from exquisite blue chalcedony, measures just 1.5 cm in length and is currently housed at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, UK. The intricate design on this flattened cylinder seal depicts a fascinating scene of a dog barking fiercely at a wild goat. The relief carving skillfully captures the intensity of the moment as these two animals confront each other amidst a mountainous landscape. This precious stone jewel serves as an extraordinary testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of ancient Minoan civilization. The miniature size of this gem-like object adds to its allure and mystique, making it all the more impressive that such intricate details could be achieved on such a small scale. Its significance lies not only in its aesthetic beauty but also in its historical value as it offers us valuable insights into Minoan culture and their relationship with domestic and wild animals. This stunning piece exemplifies both intaglio and cameo techniques commonly used during that era. It is truly an exceptional find that speaks volumes about the artistic prowess of ancient civilizations like the Minoans.
