Ring with plain bezel

This is a cast gold ring with a plain hexagonal bezel. Due to its size, this ring could have been strung around the neck and used as a pendant or seal. Rings that have inscribed motifs were usually related to the Hindu goddess Sri, who is the goddess of rice, fertility, good fortune, and prosperity in general. Symbols such as the lotus, an earthen pot containing the water of life, and a conch, were associated with the goddess Sri.
