Notes: Statues from G 1039 serdab and G 1173 (= G 1174)
Remarks

G 1174 (formerly G 1173). Seated statue from G 1039 serdab = Hearst 6-19774. Statue attributed here to G 1173 = G 1174 may possibly be standing statue of Kapuptah Cairo JE 37716, which has an uncertain provenance (Attribution of this statue to G 1171 in the published references is clearly incorrect. This statue was found in the side of the RR embankment [in situ: C12037_OS, C12038_OS, C12039_OS, C12040_OS, dated 1905] that crossed the Western Cemetery east-west just south of G 1221 and turned north-northeast in the area east of G 1221 [see C10466, dated March 1904, and B10742_OS, B10743_OS, dated July 1904], the tracks having been laid on the pre-excavation surface of the cemetery. By the spring of 1905 the east-west section of the embankment had been removed to the area east of G 1221 in the general area of G 1177 [see A11609_OS, where G 1171 can be seen east of G 1221 and west of the embankment]. The photo register entries for the in situ photos of this statue originally read "G 1177". The most that can be said about the provenance of this statue is that it was found "in the area of" G 1177.)
