Zeven kralen van azuriet, zonder gat en ruw gevormd. Ze werden door elkaar liggend gevonden bij de linker pols. Omdat er geen gaten in zitten werden ze niet aan de windsels vastgenaaid, maar waarschijnlijk in de hars vastgedrukt.
Sept perles en azurite, non percées et très sommairement façonnées. On les a retrouvées éparpillées à côté du poignet gauche de la momie. Comme elles n'étaient pas percées, elles n'étaient ni enfilées ni cousues aux bandelettes; elles furent probablement pressées dans la résine.
Sieben Azuritperlen, die sehr grob geformt und nicht durchbohrt sind. Sie wurden in der Nähe des linken Handgelenkes verstreut gefunden, und da sie nicht durchbohrt sind und daher nicht auf eine Schnur aufgezogen oder an die Mumienbandagen genäht gewesen sein konnten, ist anzunehmen, daß sie in das Harz eingedrückt worden waren.
Sette perline in azzurrite, di grezza fabbricazione, sprovviste di foro. Sono state trovate sparse a caso vicino al polso sinistro, e dal momento che non presentano alcun foro non erano legate o cucite alle bende ma probabilmente fissate a pressione nella resina.
Sete contas em azurite, nao perfuradas e com forma rudimentar. Foram encontradas, ao acaso, perto do pulso esquerdo e, uma vez que nao estao perfuradas, nao foram enfiadas em fio ou cozidas aos panejamentos, pressionadas, provávelmente, na resina.
Siete cuentas de azurita, sin horadar y de forma muy burda. Fueron encontradas colocadas de cualquier manera cerca de la muñeca izquierda, pero como no están horadadas no fueron insertadas en, o cosidas a, las vendas y probablemente fueron colocadas en posición apretándolas contra la resina.
