A Selection of Unpublished Lead Seals from the Gaziantep Archeological Museum: Seals Issued by State Officials

Abstract

Gaziantep had a permanent role in trade routes, its proximity to Samasota and

setting on the west of Euphrates was also played an important role. Gaziantep

Archeological Museum has 120 seals, including the seals belong to state officials,

provincial and military officials, ecclesiastical seals and anonymous seals. In the

presentation of the seals we used Athena font for capital letters and Greek Unicode

in small letters. Besides, a line in the catalogue dedicated to the proposed date

for the seal. Since we avoid to repeat the well known fact we avoid to translate

the Greek insciption into English, but instead we put a footnotes for the titles and

dignities. Unfortunately, as always the case in Anatolian museums we do not have

any answer for the finding places of the seals, since most of them bought or confiscated

by the museum is also applicable for Gaziantep Museum. Only we have

an idea the inventory numbers (1.6.92 to 10.6.92) most probably struck with the

same boulleterion. According to the museum records these seals came from the

necropolis area known as Kurtini and one may consider the existence of a private

archive in the same spot.
