Colours: White on the red face. Thick red face and 2.7 - 5.4 digits of the stem (01-094 in Davies's notebook).

Findspots:

• 11 from the tomb Z1 at Dra Abul Naga (Aglan 2020: 203, 207, 273, 353, and 359). 

Remarks:

• The owner occurs on the wall of TT 88 (Eichler 2000: 284). His stelophorous statue is held by the Fondation Gandur pour l'Art de Genève (FGA-ARCH-EG-44. Grassart-Blésès 2014-2015 [BSÉG 30]). There is a possibility that the wooden fragment housed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Firenze (inv. no. 2392) also belongs to our Mehu (Winlock 1932: 65).
