Context (Related Documents)
A loose label, not attached to the net, was found reading: 'TA 26/7 /426'. This implies a Tell Amarna number, but as it was not attached to the object, and there was indeed a net found in Grave 11 (see Bib), it is possible that the label was accidentally bagged with the net. It has been placed in a separate bag but is still store with the net.
