Uiteinde met zegel van aardewerken grafkegel met inscriptie voor een schrijver van de koning. Er zijn twee kolommen ongescheiden tekst. Dergelijke kegels werden bij de ingang van het graf geplaatst, waarschijnlijk in het natte pleisterwerk van de bovendrempel. Zo was het brede uiteinde met opschrift voor iedereen te zien.
Base circulaire d'un cône funéraire en terre cuite inscrite au nom d'un scribe royal. On peut y voir deux colonnes de texte non séparées. Les cônes étaient placés à l'entrée des tombes, probablement enfoncés dans le plâtre encore humide du linteau. Ainsi, tous ceux qui passaient devant la tombe pouvaient voir les inscriptions figurant sur la base circulaire.
Lediglich das gestempelte Ende eines Grabkegels aus Ton, das einem königlichen Schreiber gehörte. Er weist zwei Textkolumnen ohne Zeilentrenner auf. Grabkegel wurden an Grabeingängen angebracht, wahrscheinlich wurden sie in den feuchten Putz des Türsturzes geschoben. Das beschriftete Ende war für alle, die am Grab vorübergingen, sichtbar.
