(Nov 14 Continued)     

removed together with collarette (gg) heretofore mentioned. /

Mingled with these last g mentioned groups of objects were

small and deg/<ca>yed fragments of papyrus bearing

a ritual written in linear hieros in white paint.

This ritual owing to its was so disintegrated into minute

fragments, some of which mere powder, <all of which were> much of it entirely

perished, only a few letters of the text were discernible - these

gave names of gods such as Isis and Osiris, and for that

reason it is not improbable that it below pertained to the

amulets named above.

(KKK)

An amulet similar and p and pendent to (TT) was

formed the 8th layer. It lay in corresponding position to

(TT) and right side (and no doubt TT was of same layer). /

(LLL)

An enormous chased sheet gold amuletic Buto, covering

the whole of the front of the chest, its wings enveloping the

shoulders, formed the 9^th layer of objects. Its gold wire

attac and pendent tag attached in all probability or tied

lay rested o/<u>nder the small of the back. /

(MMM)

Con Immediately below (LLL) - i.e. the 10th layer - was a

Nekhbet vulture, of magnificent work, composed as follows:

number of gold cloisonnes inlaid with faience, attached

to one another by minute loops and faience beads. The

head, body, feathered legs and remiges tail-feathers are

of one piece, while the claws holding the shen-sign symbols

are of separate pieces. The primary, secondary and

tertiary flight feathers and also the wing-coverts are

formed of cloisonnes already described. This forms

a massive pectoral of Nekb the upp Goddess of

Upper Egypt.

This terminated the work of today.
