This book catalogs the outstanding collection of stamp seals at Oxford's Ashmolean Museum, covering 246 seals up to the Seleucid period. The late Buchanan's catalogue entries have been combined with fully referenced introductory sections written by Moorey, and each seal is illustrated twice to show the design and the shape of its back, crucial to any typological system. Also included is Buchanan's illustrated system for the terminology of stamp seals.
