This rare seal shows a seated figure in yogic posture,
probably Shiva-Pashupati. It is usually thought that the
figure has three faces but some scholars do not subscribe
to it. The legs of the figure are bent double, heel to
heel, and toes turned downwards. This is the posture of
yoga. His arms are out stretched and hands are resting on
his knees. From the wrist to the shoulders the arms are
covered with bangles. He is wearing triangular necklaces.
Crowning his head is a pair of horns meeting in a tall
headdress.
Either side of the god are animals - an
elephant, a tiger on his exact right and a rhinoceros, a
man and a buffalo on his left. Beneath the throne are two
does standing with heads regardent and horns turned to the
centre. On the top of the seal is an inscription of seven
characters.
