Hi Rami,
Just an observation... I also associated the globolo
style with the Etruscans but it existed long before the Etuscans and elsewhere. From your photos, the
scarab seems to be carved from a dark opaque
stone. If the color of the
stone is black or silvery, it could be hematite; if it is brown (the color of milk chocolate), it may be a variety of hematite called goethite.
Your
scarab does not look Etruscan, at least not to me. There is a class of scarab/seal, originating (?) in northern
Syria, Circa 1000 BC, that is closer to yours. See: Keel-Leu, H. Vorderasiatische Stempelsiegel,
Orbis Biblicus et Orientalis 110, Freiburg/Gottingen, 1991: Nos. 65 and 66.
