Comments on Inventory | Note: Papyri 16.580.220ff found unrecorded in storeroom Dec ’48. Assumed to be part of original Wilbour gift of 1916 but may be gift of Miss Theodora Wilbour in 1935. Old records of no aid. 12/19/2003: There is a note in the Registrar's Accession sheets for 35.1327 - 35.1444 that these numbers for these amulets were cancelled by Mr. Cooney in January 1942 and the objects were assigned the accession numbers 16.580mn. It is impossible to match the cancelled accession number with the accession number in 16.580mn. (S.Leverock, Registrar). |
