介绍（中）	这枚邮票印章显示了两个人物之间的相遇，由于他们的长胡须，他们可以被识别为男性。这枚印章在坚硬、有光泽的石玉髓上雕刻着八角形的脸，出现在左边的照片中;右边是用凹版雕刻在印章面上的造型粘土的现代印象。在印象中，右边的人物穿着一件下摆有流苏的长衣服，将手举到脸上，手掌向内，以恭敬的姿态打招呼。左边的人物穿着鱼皮斗篷，提着一个水桶，显示为一个由切割线形成的正方形，顶部有一个手柄。鱼皮斗篷表明他是一名阿希普（ah-shee-pu），一位通过驱除被认为导致他们疾病的邪灵来照顾病人的牧师。鱼皮斗篷将这个人物与甜水的原始土地，阿普苏，智慧之神Ea的领域连接起来。右边的人物可能正在拜访驱魔牧师以求医治。在它们之间是一根法杖，直立安装，顶部有一个地球仪;在上方的天空中是一个带翅膀的圆盘，象征着亚述主神阿苏尔。一个菱形的物体出现在驱魔祭司的背后。
介绍（英）	This stamp seal shows an encounter between two figures who can be identified as male because of their long beards. The seal, carved with an octagonal face in the hard, lustrous stone chalcedony, appears in the photograph at left; at right is a modern impression in modelling clay of the image carved in intaglio into the seal face. In the impression, the figure at right wears a long garment with fringe at the hem and raises his hand to his face, palm inward, in a respectful gesture of greeting. The figure at left wears a fish-skin cloak and carries a bucket, shown as a square formed by incised lines with a handle at top. The fish-skin cloak identifies him as an āšipu (ah-shee-pu), a priest who tended to sick people by exorcising the evil spirits that were thought to be causing their illness. The fish-skin cloak connects this figure with the primordial land of sweet waters, the Apsu, the domain of the wise god Ea. The figure at right may be visiting the exorcist priest in order to be healed. Between them is a staff, mounted in upright position and topped with a globe; in the sky above is a winged disk, symbolizing the Assyrian chief god Assur. A diamond-shaped object appears behind the exorcist priest’s back.
