2015. Ooops.
July 2016 The auction sale catalogues of some important cylinder seal collections which were curated with a high level of expertise are quite useful resources. Such as the Sotheby's sales in '92 and '97 of the Erlenmeyer collection, and the Ada Samall Moore collection in '91. Also the Christie's sales in '93 and 2001 of the McLenden and Surena collections. However not all auction house have the same level of expertise!
From an international auction house and on eBay a large number of cylinder seals. Such as..... Variously described as Sumerian, Akkadian, Cypriot, Early Dynastic, Middle Assyrian, New Assyrian, Persian, Achaemenian, Mittanian, Kassite and Old Babylonian.
These are from similar factories as are offered (at much higher prices) by a well known crook in Manhattan. See here and on some later pages.
