| Description |
Ivory Tags (Acc. 6763.a-e) Set of 5 ivory tag labels (3 photographed above) with suspension loops at top, which would be tied to vases or other objects to identify the source or owner. One of the labels (a) is incised with a falcon on a 'serekh', with the name of king Djer. The other labels are uninscribed, but might have had inscriptions in pigment, now lost. Described as ivory in original register and publication - but lacks the characteristic markings of ivory; spongey appearance on a couple of examples, so certainly bone. 1.8 x 1.9 cm Bone Early Dynastic (Dyn. 1) Abydos, Upper Egypt Acquisition: British School of Archaeology in Egypt (Donation, 1922) Bibliography W M Flinders Petrie, "Tombs of the Courtiers and Oxyrhynchus" (BSAE, London. 1922) PL.
