steps and leading to the descending passage, shew traces of two 

successive openings and re-closings of a part of its surface: ap-

plied to the re-closed portions were seal impressions of the type 

(H), whereas the impressions that covered the untouched (original) 

part of the blocking of the doorway shew repeatedly the prenomen 

of Tut.ankh.Amen.
