Description | |
Tooley-1989 p. 94: Contemporary [8/9 dyns] [...] is the nomarch anx-ty.fy-nxt. [His model granary ] from Mo'alla appears to consist of wooden domes (JE 52085-6. H.1-2 cms. Fischer 1961, 49, fig.2). The small size of these domes seems more in keeping with gaming pieces. They do however, have small square apertures part way up their sides which may be openings for the extraction of grain. | |
