In the foregoing list it is to be noted that the seals found
in the sacrificial corridors

Tumuli K III and K IV are fewer in number than those found in the sacrificial corridor of
Tumulus K X — four in K III, six in KIV, and thirty-three in K X. The subsidiary graves
in K III yielded ten, in K IV seven, and in K X thirteen. Among the seals found in and
about K X, the form types not represented are:

II, stamp form.
Ill (1) and (3), the round and the long oval ivory forms.
IV(2) and (3), the long oval steatite forms.
