Provenance The information on the figurine indicates that it was found in Room 663. There seems to be some inconsistancy concerning the unit that is associated with Room 663. The millimeter card for the Object B2013.1.70 says that Room 663 was in Unit AB16x and TEN II says that it was in Z15. However, when I checked the site map, Room 663 was drawn in Unit Z16.
