This amphora has an inscription in hieratic dated to year 7 of the joint reign of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III. The inscription indicates that the jar contains two measures of setwy oil. The mud stopper, which completely covers the neck and mouth of the jar, was stamped with the seal of "the God's Wife Hatshepsut." As a further security measure, a narrow strip of linen cloth has been wound through one handle and around the stopper and the tied ends have been covered mud that was then stamped with a rectangular seal.Free picture Sealed Amphora Containing Oil integrated with the OffiDocs web apps
