This list is very closely similar to that on
PL xix.; in some places it seems to be more
correctly written.
II. 2 et seqq. Apparently use is here made
of the double helcat, but the amounts named
in the last list do not at all confirm the
evidence of the signs _,Z? here : perhaps
the double helcat was in reality the unit in
that list also, though it is there simply called
helcat.
I. 10. The "drink-water" fish was probably
some highly salted and spiced preparation in-
ducing thirst, 1 hebent (i henu) of which was
an ample supply. Is it possible that swri mw
has been corrupted to ssnw in the previous list,
PL xix., 1. 8 ?
II. 17-19 were very likely added in after the
rest of the page was filled : cf. especially the
position of the " flax" entry in the previous
list, PL xix., 1. 39.
I. 19. It is doubtful to what this entry
refers, unless it be really a continuation of
1. 10.
I. 36. The sign transcribed ,r) is not very
certain.
I. 42. On the collotype we seem to read
|1 Jj^ , but the original does not admit
of this reading.
I. 44. Cf. the value fin of '^csl.
I. 48. This papyrus being more correctly
written than the preceding, may give a truer
form than the nb>' which we there find in
PL xix., 1. 50.
I. 50. Or bisw (?).
Kahun, XIV. 1.
[PL XX., 11. 52-58.]
Fragment, found alone; length, 3 in. -
7*5 cm.; width, 4 in. = 10 cm.
Recto.—Fragment of account, written in red
and black.
Verso.—Blank.
52. Contributions (?), Hetep'Usertesen, living
53.......the chief......of this city
55.......Usertesen, living for ever to [eternity]
The interest of this fragment lies in the
fact that it was to all appearance written in
the lifetime of the king for whom Hetep
Usertesen was built. It is the earliest dateable
fragment of papyrus from Kahun (Appendix A).
