K XIV. Plan V (continued).
Objects:
out over and about the chapels. These objects were clearly thrown out by the
plunderers either from K XIV or K XV. I have assumed that the objects
directly in front of K XIV came from that grave, while those east of K XIV A,
I assign to K XV as they seem to have been dumped out of that grave. The
accuracy of this division is not a matter of importance, as the two graves are
so close together in date that for all practical purposes the objects from this
area may be regarded as belonging to one archaeological group. I give the
objects seriatim under the description of the various parts of the two graves.
In the debris of the main pit:
i. Small faience figure, a squatting ape with hands at mouth; h., 31 mm.; lower
part of background flat, has been in contact with some object (a kohl-
pot?) to which the figure was attached by means of a dowel; 14-1-753.
ii. Beads; 14-1-754:
Few small ring-beads of blue faience; diam., 2-2.5 mm.
Few disc-beads of white shell; diam., 4-7 mm.
iii. Two fragments of alabaster vessel; 14-1-755.
iv. Fragment of vessel of volcanic ash; 14-1-758.
v. Two fragments of very large faience basin, green faience, Type IX-1; diam.
ca. 26 cm.; 14-1-756.
vi. Potsherds: Bkt. beakers (poor); R. P.; Blk. W. (pitted).
Chapel A: see K XIV. About two meters south of the ox-skulls on the eastern half of
K XIV. Consists of a single cell built of crude-brick; walls, 85 cm. thick;
interior, 200 X 200 cm.; exterior, 370 X 370 cm.; orientation of cross axis,
3° south of east. Doorway in south wall, 100 cm. wide; mud-brick threshold,
20 cm. wide, rising 18 cm. above floor inside; a displaced block of stone on
inside to east, probably door-socket. Wall preserved to a height of about
60 cm. from floor and 80 cm. from foundation level. Floor filled with earth
and mud-plastered.
Objects: 1-7, on floor or on debris near floor, all intrusive.
+ 1. Three-legged beaker-stand, B. P. XXI-1; 14-1-710.
2. Three-legged beaker-stand, B. P. XXI-1; 14-1-711.
+3. Small jar, R. P. HI-3; 14-1-712.
4. Beaker, Bkt. II—1 (a); 14-1-713.
+5. Beaker, B. P. XVI-1; 14-1-714.
+6. Slender jar, K. W. XIII-1; 14-1-715.
7. Beaker, Bkt. 11-33; 14-1-716.
In the debris of the room (numbers continued from K XIV):
vii. Bronze harpoon-head, double barbed with spur on haft; L, 7 cm.; 14-1-649.
viii. Bone threader (or spatula); 1., 9.7 cm.; 14-1-648.
ix. Fragments of ivory inlays (not bed-inlays), plain rectangular pieces; ca.
4.7 X 1 X 0.3 cm.; 14-1-650.
x. Nearly complete set of mica ornaments (double-headed eagles, cf. K 451);
see Chapter XXIX, Mica, 38; 14-1-646.
xi. Fragments of a set of mica ornaments (double-headed bustards); see Mica,
39; 14-1-725.
