A cylinder seal is a small, round cylinder invented around 3500 BCE in the Near East. It was particularly important in southern Mesopotamia. Cylinder seals were usually engraved with written characters or figures, and were used for administrative purposes.

- Most Mesopotamian sylinder seals formed an image through the use of depressions in the cylinder surface. This type of seal is linked to the development of clay tablets, and produces an effect similar to that of sunken reliefs in Ancient Egypt.
