Handlist description: Composite unguent vase (calcite)

Card/Transcription No.: 360-2


(360 continued) 2

REMARKS: Contents of Hapi-vessel robbed - residue on bottom The stopper of the vase intact - contents robbed from the bottom which had been wrenched off. Traces of linen binding on lid and neck This composite unguent vase was broken intentionally - pieces 20. Three holes drilled & filled up on the trellis-stand, suggest that some kind of ornament or vessel other than the Hapy was originally intended.
