Findspots:
Unknown examples from the 'Mond's magazine (= inner hall of TT 96. See Mond 1904 [ASAE 5]: 100)' (01-091 in Davies's notebook and 04-087 in Macadam's Green file).
A brick with two seal impressions and a lot of plaster on the rough side was from near TT 84 (01-091 in Davies's notebook and 04-087 in Macadam's Green file).
57 from TT 99 (Strudwick and Strudwick 2016: 53).
Remarks:
Strudwick has reconstructed the original text. See here.
Some cones were found with the lower part of the seal impression and some with the upper part, probably because the matrix designer realised that the proposed text would not really fit on a standard cone surface and so decided to spread it over two cones (Strudwick and Strudwick 2016: 50).
According to Davies, the seal for this cone was cracked, so it should have been made of wood (01-091 in Davies's notebook and 04-087 in Macadam's Green file).
The ascribed owner is identical to that of # 154.
