Handwritten notes on the battle scene from the painted casket. 

Transcription

the green leaf-like pattern (note on necklaces on p. 2). 

Is it possible that gold dust was 

mixed with the paint to give richness – 

on the ivory casket bracelets & other parts 

are overlaid with gold leaf & it may be gold

was also used on the wooden box – no such 

treatment or texture of yellow paint is known 

to me in the tombs.
