Subjects: Object(s) photograph: Site: Giza; view: G 2120
Date: 06/15/1936
Problems/Questions: Problem: 33-1-24 references this photo without indication of placement, annotated mounted print identifies first item bottom row as 33-1-24 but photo distribution note in object register identifies it as 33-1-22 (as well as last jar on right), 33-1-22 has pot mark which is visible on jar bottom row right (present identifications assumed to be correct); annotated mounted print identifies second item top row as part of 33-1-25 but that is only rim fragments according to object register; annotated mounted print identifies third item top row as 33-1-16 but cf. B8300 and OR illustration (33-1-16 deleted from description); annotated mounted print identifies third item bottom row as 33-1-23 but that is rim fragment; unidentified (or incorrectly identified on annotated print) mended sections of shoulder jars possibly 33-1-29; all others checked against annotated print and object register
