Unknown examples from below TT 11 (Chassinat 1910 [BIFAO 7]: 159).
Unknown examples from the southern Dra Abul Naga (Northampton etc. 1908: 4, Pls. 2, 24. Exact location unknown. cf. Delgado 2005 [BAEDE 15]: 92).
35 from the TT 11–12 area (Galán and Borrego 2006 [Memnonia 17]: 204).
Remarks:
According to the drawings on Gauthier 1916 [BIFAO 12]: 131, Davies_cone_039_2 & 3 below, and Galán and Borrego 2006: Pl. 36, there is a t-sign under the mr (N 36) in the third line.
Davies attributes this cone to the early 18th Dynasty (01-008 in Davies's notebook).
According to Borchardt et al., Jd'E 58292 in the EMC is a "rundköpfige Friesziegel", a funerary cone whose body has a square cross-section but with a rounded head (Borchardt, Königsberger, and Ricke 1934 [ZÄS 70]: 33).
From the inscription style, it can be reasonably concluded that # 18 and # 112 were created by the same individual and that they were created at the same time. However, the design of # 360 differs from that of the two aforementioned cones, indicating that it was created by a different individual. However, it is unclear whether # 360 was created before or after # 18 and # 112.
