Two linen marks
Middle Kingdom
Linen marks are usually short inscriptions written in ink on the corners of large sheets of linen. Some mention the names and titles of high officials, to whose estate the linen may have belonged or who were possibly overseeing its acquisition or production. Other marks say nfr (good), which probably refers to the quality of the fabric; one of the two pieces here belongs to this category. Occasionally, the name of the ruling king and a date are also written.
