Transcription

                                        (5)

 

                                 SEAL H/<E>

 

NOTES:

 

          This seal not identical with E/<H>, see notes on E/<H>. 

The nine captives seem to be Asiatics, as far as 

discernible and the ropes terminate in the northern 

flower wherever they can be distinguished. The addi-

tion of the cartouche over the figure of Anubis 

strengthens the conclusion that the god is to be 

identified with the king as is so often the case 

with Osiris.

 

TRANSLATION:

 

n "Nebkheprure-Anubis, triumphant over the nine 

Captive peoples".

 

            DISTRIBUTION OF THE SEALS BY DOORS

 

FIRST DOOR (4)

 

          Contains A, B, C, D, and E/<H>. At the time of my exam-

ination the distinction between E/<H> and H/<E> had not yet 

been noted. It is therefore possible that some of 

seals recorded as E/<H> should be H/<E>. the same is true 

of the second door (13).

          The surviving materials do not permit mapping the 

exact distribution of the seals on this door.

 

SECOND DOOR (13)

 

          No new seals as compared with Door 4. It presuma-

bly bore the same seals as door 4, with "idiosyncra-

cies/<Similar Traces> of successive openings and closings" (H.C.)

          The surviving materials do not permit mapping the 

exact distribution of the seals on this door.
