Another method of sealing scrolls was to use a wax seal, which was melted and then applied to the scroll wrapper or cord. The wax seal could also bear the impression of a signet ring, or it could be decorated with other designs or symbols.
In some cases, scrolls were also sealed using a simple knot, which was tied in the cord that held the scroll wrapper closed. This method was less secure than using a clay or wax seal, but it was still effective in preventing the scroll from being opened without authorization.
The specific method of sealing a scroll varied depending on the culture and time period. However, the use of seals to protect the contents of scrolls was a common practice throughout the ancient world.
