Comment:
According to Victoria Jensen (2020-04-18), "Provenience should be Room 302, South Columned Court, North Palace. There was no tomb numbered 302 in Reisner's field notes for Cemetery 1-200, but the South Columned Court in the North Palace was given the number 302 and Green mentioned "numerous shell or ivory beads" in his notes for that area (notebook D-9, p. 90).
