Characteristics
| Rows | 12 |
| Date Row | No |
| Columns | At least 24, no more than 27 originally (EAT 1, p 19) |
| Pattern | Very disordered throughout, with the diagonal pattern reversed throughout. |
| Vertical Strip | Sopdet Meskhetiu Sahu Nut |
| Horizontal Strip | Meskhetiu, [Nut] |
| Other Text | None |
| Style | This table is notable for the colours used in the horizontal strip and the late arrival of the vertical strip, halfway between the second and third battens. |
| Notes | Contains some potential K list triangle decans in the lower left quadrant. The confusion in the table is particularly annoying for the researcher, as this is the type K table with the largest number of columns, and hence the "longest" K list if we can trust it. Decan 24 tpy-ꜥ ꜣḫwy only occurs once in a damaged cell, and decan 30 sꜣwy ḳd is not present for unknown reasons. Its omission here is the only case amongst four tables (K1, K2, K3, K4) whose decan list reaches this far. |
