Stone vessels represented by about six examples in diorite and ala-
baster, two of which were extensively mended with copper
rivets. These vessels all come from the earlier part of the
cemetery and are of Old and Middle Kingdom Egyptian forms.
The local work in stone was represented by a grinding slab for
grain, and a receptacle under it in the form of a hippopotamus,
in sandstone.
