Description: | Faience tablet with four containers thereon. Pale blue. Only one well complete. 62x72x32mm. This item was part of the MacGregor collection, sold at auction 1922 (lot 335). For similar items see Christine Insley Green 1987 'The Temple Furniture from the sacred animal necropolis at North Saqqara' page 64-65. Such items seem to have been used in temples. These have sometimes been classed as model cereal bins or inkwells, however, a more recent interpretation sees them as model vessels.
