Another Minoan seal design, because why the heck not 😄 Evans described it as "goddess reposing on the waves of the sea". Just chillin. It's one of my favorites. 🥰 The second pic is the original artifact.

An oval glass pendant on my palm, 2cm wide. It features the black line drawing of a stylized Minoan figure, a woman in a flounced skirt and bare breasts reclining against a blue and green background of stylized waves.

I freaking love Minoan seal designs 😄 "Stylized wild goat." Mood.

Just found out there is a version of the Iliad where, after the death of Achilles, his mother Thetis turns into a seal and takes revenge by hunting down Helen.

There is an ancient Greek horror story hidden in there somewhere, about Helen being hunted by a vengeful pinniped...
