Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Sumerians used sunken relief technique to create cylinder seals that ensured the identification of documents and established property ownership. Sunken relief involves carving the design into the surface so that the design is recessed below the surface. When the seal is rolled onto a surface, the design is raised in relief and leaves an impression that can be used for identification.
