The seal, as impressed in the bulla, is extraordinary not only because it belonged to a well-known Judahite king, but also because it is iconic; that is, in addition to the Hebrew inscription, it shows a picture; in this case a carving of a two-winged beetle pushing a ball of mud or dung.
A seal inscribed "[belonging] to Manasseh son of the king" may be Manasseh's seal before he ascended to the throne.
Cross implies that the two-winged beetle on Hezekiah's seal reflects a religious view: "There appears to have been a tendency to solarize Yahweh in Judah in the eighth century [B.C.E.] and later," he tells us.
