This Mesopotamian seal impression from the 23rd century B.C.E. displays a seated male deity facing a female worshiper, with a date palm and snake between them. Though unlikely by today's interpretation, George Smith famously related this scene to the temptation of Eve in the Garden of Eden (see The Chaldean Account of Genesis, London, 1875, pages 90-91).
