Context (Other)
This stone was found in the same bag as 1931.231.1–14. However, as it is not marked in the same way as the other objects, its association with this group cannot be confirmed with certainty and it has therefore been assigned a TEMP number. As an association with this group appears nonetheless very likely, selected fields such as 'Source' and 'Place' have been provisionally copied from records 1931.231.1-14.
