Colours: Red face and 2.1-3.2 digits of the stem (01-106 in Davies's notebook). Red slip on its face as well as the bottom part of the body (SK205-00-000).
Findspots:
One from near TT 156 (01-106 in Davies's notebook and 04-058 in the Macadam's Green file. However, according to the object register cards in the Penn Museum, he found three: Nos. 714/29-86-666 from TT 18, 824/29-86-668 from the court of TT 156, and 1682/29-86-704 from the court of TT 156. The object register book housed in the same museum gives another example, No. 836, which was also found by Fisher to be this cone).
Unknown examples from a site some distance from TT 158 (Chassinat 1910 [BIFAO 7]: 160).
Remarks:
Davies describes this cone as square or oblong (01-106 in Davies's notebook and a note in the material held at the Griffith Institute, Oxford). However, according to Macadam, the one in the collection of Davies himself is almost circular (it may be # 30.6.33 housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art). There is also a prism 'cone' (SK205-00-000).
