Deir el-Bahri tomb of Bw3w. JE 31345. Dimensions unknown (plate 23: 1). Amongst the crudely made models was a granary, rectangular in shape with a painted door. Like most models with peaked corners there is a court across the back of which are 3 open topped magazines. The scribe and overseer squat in the court, whilst the 3 labourers fill sacks and empty them into the magazines (Naville 1896, 3-4; Maspero 1915, 320; Porter and Moss 1964, 656; Winlock 1947, 43). Dated 11 dyn. (p. 33).
