  • ink text on paper

  • 20.6 x 33.2 cm
  • [text]:

'The [V39] hieroglyphic represents the fastening of the

belt worn by the Gods and Kings round the waist

The [R11] hieroglyphic in the upper part of the

staff carried by the Divinity Pthath only

The age of the Sarcophagus is apparently

discovered settled by Mr Sharpe's discovery *

namely after the the time of the Persian

rule with which time the style of the hieroglyphics

agree

Mr Sharpe also remarks the [X1\:X1-Q1] for the

more ancient forms [X1\:H8-Q1]

X See Mr Sharpes notes

The drawing of the heads of the different figures

on all three of the Cases show that they were

all three decorated by the work of the same artist in all

of them there is a remarkable protrusion of the

lips. This remark does not apply to the sculptured

heads on the 2d and 3d case and therefore thus the

Sculptor and painter were not the same person

as there is abundant proof I Bonomi to show in other

monts'
