- Remarks
- There is some confusion regarding the identity of the last two bowls. The left is labeled 34-4-84 (= JE 67675) and matches the object register drawing; however, the findspot for object 34-4-84 is 1172(191), not 1172(104) (= MFA 37.2673, and seen in photo C13435) as it is also labeled. Likewise, the right bowl is labeled 34-4-85 and also matches the object register drawing; but again, the findspot should be 1172(142), not 1704(3) (= MFA 37.2700, and seen in photo C13435). The notation in the object register that 34-4-84 and 34-4-85 are shown in photo C13435 is evidently incorrect, but it is unclear which two bowls are actually shown here.
