Other Information

The original box from which this negative came has been marked C9/9/ by the cataloguer.

Box C9/9/ contains images of stone figurines. There is no evidence in the box to suggest that these images are part of the Evans collection. However, the collection name for this box is catalogued as Evans Collection due to the fact that this box was found in the wooden box C/9/, which has boxes containing negatives from the Evans collection only. Therefore the Collection name is based on associated reference.
