Remarks: | Description: handwriting different from those of Giornale A and B ( Botti-Peet, Il giornale della necropoli di Tebe , 41: "mano C" ). Publication: same text transcribed twice in Kitchen, Ramesside Inscriptions VI: as "Turin Necropolis Journal Year 17, Section C" (598) and as "P. Turin Cat. 2106/2107" (868 and 869). Content: it is unclear in what way exactly this text is related to Giornale 17-A and B. The deposition is connected with Giornale 17- recto VIII 2-11 by McDowell, Village Life , 198 . The thief Nxt-Mnw is also mentioned in Giornale 17-A recto V 9 and in P. BM 10053 recto II 11 (Peet, Tomb-robberies , pl. XVII). The same list of stolen objects in Giornale 17-A verso IV 2-4 ( Botti-Peet, Il giornale della necropoli di Tebe , 42 ). |
