Brush
Late Period or later
Made of grass lashed together with strips of palm leaf, this brush was found inside a large pot similar in shape to 28.3.170. This was part of an embalmers' cache made up of a rectangular wood coffin and more than 30 pots full of various materials that had been used for mummification. This particular jar also contained broken wreaths, two additional grass brushes tied with grass; oily potsherds; clean straw; and clean grass.
