DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: mummy label, Greek
object type: Large wooden mummy label with inscription in Greek, with rounded top. At one end of the object is a protusion where there is a hole for suspension, however a large fragment of this has broken off (including a part of the hole) which is now missing. This is correspondant with a significant crack (visible on both sides of the label) which runs down the entirety of the label. There appears to be glue running along the crack on the rear, suggesting it was repaired in modernity. A pencil inscription reads 'Sakkara', and another note reads 'INV 12' and 'W/45'
title:	mummy label
