Notes
Discovered October 1858. Possibly EMC_JE_1982. There has been some confusion between the JE and CG correspondences for the ushabtis of Paseba; entry for EMC_JE_1982 appears to be for one ushabti only, but three CG numbers are given (EMC_CG_47487, EMC_CG_47489, and EMC_CG_47490), with a note that four similar ushabtis were not catalogued (actually six numbers listed: EMC_CG_47488, EMC_CG_47491, EMC_CG_47492, EMC_CG_47493, EMC_CG_47494, and EMC_CG_47495). However, in the SR, these six (EMC_CG_47488, EMC_CG_47491, EMC_CG_47492, EMC_CG_47493, EMC_CG_47494, and EMC_CG_47495) are all listed as being EMC_JE_1982.
