71.12.5 Two holes have been restored with transparent material. The end of the strigil is damaged. Discolouration of bronze to green, blue and black. Only a couple of areas of the true bronze colour remains. A couple of cracks have appeared making the object fragile.
71.12.6 Large parts of bronze have broken away from the sides of the curved section. The most important aspect to note is the deterioration in colour to blue, green, black and brown. Only in a couple of areas does the true colour of the bronze show through. Deposits under the handle where it joins the body. Small hole to one side of the curved section.
71.6.1 Single fragment comprising most of a handle, broken off at the bottom; chipped on left side and generally worn.

Rim, and both inside and outside of fragment show more small scratches. Larger scratch diagonally down left, through black band directly beneath the ivy leaf.
73.9.23 The surface of the fragment appears to be in fairly good condition, except for a few small areas of grey deposit.

The surface however is again in fairly good condition with no real evidence of wear except for a few small scratches.
73.9.3 Fragment. Handle broken at tip, with small patches of wear all over. Scratch on the left side of the handle, pointing towards rim. Only a suggestion of rim remaining. Pinky, grey deposits on inside of rim and suggestion of the same up the outside of the handle.

To the right of the figure, the fragment has split in half, so only the back half remains. The back of the fragment has small scratches and a couple of chips in the surface of the glaze.
73.9.7 Incomplete, only a small amount of the cup remains, including one handle. Two pieces are glued back together.

Both inside and out, there are traces of a whitish deposit, except on the foot where the deposit is more of a pinky colour.
73.9.8 Two fragments. (a)The glaze on the rim and the inside of the fragment shows a few small scratches. On the rim and the outside of the fragment there are a few small areas of milky/white deposit. The black blob reveals an area which may have been the base of a handle. The colour of the clay inside here, is a more pink colour. Like the first fragment, fragment (b) shows evidence of small scratches on the glaze, both inside and out, but seems in fairly good condition, with no evidence of deposit.
74.7.5 Complete. Has been glued back together from two pieces. Is entirely covered by dark deposit, possibly from the action of fire. Thought to be from a burnt grave. There is a lot of flaking, revealing white. The features of the face are distinguishable, but are worn in places. The back is much lighter in colour, but still covered in brown/green deposit and feels rough to the touch.
76.6.1 Lip and frontal part of the neck is chipped. Handle assempled from three fragments. Black paint is dull and has been flaked off largely. The surface has a 'dusty' appearance.

E.23.38 Intact, it is clear from the top and bottom part of the artefact that it has been removed from a larger object, since they appear to be thinner than the rest of the object and therefore look like 'connectors' of some kind. There appears to be very little degradation of the wood. There are some remnants of a white pigment on the lower half.
E.23.41.1-25 At least nine beads have a good glaze remaining. Some have deposits and at least one has lost colour. Small cracks in a couple of beads.

E.23.47.1 Most of the beads have lost their original sheen and several of them have a brown deposit on them.
