Description

Here is a braid of dark hair belonging to the deceased buried in tomb 124. The hair is braided very loosely until the end of the wick, although higher up (nearer the scalp) the braid is tighter.

Il s'agit d'une tresse de cheveux foncés appartenant à un sujet inhumé dans la tombe 124. Les cheveux sont tressés très lâches jusqu'au bout de la mèche. Plus on se rapproche du début de la mèche, à l'endroit où elle s'attachait au cuir chevelu, plus le tressage est serré.
