Brown Material

 

Patches of brown-coloured granular earthy looking 

matter (colour suggestive of Fe2O3) on many objects 

in irregular patches i.e. on
<7. Fungus>

     Sistrum 76 (one side only) Not on Sistrum 75
     Stool 78
     Bed 80 – very plentiful
     Standard from Shrine 38 – particularly on head of snake.

Reddish-brown spots & patches on gold of statues 22 & 29 & frequently 

at sides of cracks. These frothed & smelled of glue when wet & generally 

could be removed with warm water though sometimes resistant. Rather 

suggestive of fungoid growths & could be fungus on glue but on whole probably 

not fungus but glue from gesso or from that sticking on the gold.
