, the seals of ">nd> ^'t"^!'!!. *^, O'llll (•) and -inD-^ I'l 'lo case does the lion resemble the Assyrian repiesentation of the king of beasts. The seal f)f "^nCl comes fiom Khorsabad, and, from the circTimstances \inder which it was found, has l»een asciibed to the time of Sargon (722-705 15. C. ). * The dates of the remaining four can scarcely be determined either from the palicography or from the character of the names them- selves. In the case of the seal now under discussion, the occurren...ce of the name Jeroljoam has Ijcen held l)y some to l)e a decisive indication of its date. Indeed, it was not unnatural that one's thought should go at once to the first king of Israel {circ. 930 B. C. ) or to the son of Joash (782-743 B. C. ). A little reflection, however, will show that the identification must not be hurriedly made. We know so little of the internal history of the Israelite monarchy that we can scarcely believe that the name Jeroboam was borne by only iion individuals. Further, if Jerolioam I is meant, we should have the oldest specimen of Xorth Semitic writing, con- sidera1>ly older than the Moabite stone and the PhcL'uician "Baal- Lebanon" inscription, '' and this is not borne out l)y the palaeo- graphy of the seal.
