| Notes | Decan 1 tpy-ꜥ knmt is expected but not present because the first batten, containing column 1, is missing. The final batten containing, presumably, column 15 is also absent; however, it may have been attached to another coffin (Cockcroft & Symons, 2014). This star table was displayed in the 1980s but has since been unavailable. |
