Findspots:
One example of this cone or # 3 from Dra Abul Naga (cf. No. 823 in the object register book entitled 'D. A. N. 1-1485' housed in the Penn Museum).
Remarks:
The cone in question was referenced in Roeder 1924: 297 but has been disregarded due to its similarity to Davies & Macadam # 3, leading scholars to associate the two. However, unlike the former, Davies & Macadam # 3 does not feature the term ‘Asjr (Osiris)’ at the beginning of the sentence.
