Findspots:
Unknown examples from southern Dra Abul Naga (Northampton etc. 1908: 4, Pls. 2, 24. Exact location unknown. cf. Delgado 2005 [BAEDE 15]: 92).
40 from TT 11-12 area (Galán and Borrego 2006 [Memnonia 17]: 204).
Remarks:
Davies dates this cone to the early 18th Dynasty (01-008 in Davies's notebook).
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.
