Scarab of Seti II
New Kingdom
The underside of the scarab is decorated with two royal cartouches, each surmounted by sun disk flanked by ostrich feathers. The cartouches contain the prenomen and nomen of Seti II, Userkheperre-meramun Seti-merneptah. Only few seals are known on which both names appear together and, moreover, most of these are plaques.
