The hieroglyphic texts include the Dedicatory Phrase (formerly called the Primary Standard Sequence), and shorter texts next to some of the figures provide their names or titles. Those of the vase's painter are found at the end of the Dedicatory Phrase and again in the T-shaped text behind Itz'amnaj.Ceramics25.0000000000 Centimeterhttp://collections.mfa.org/objects/36438/rdf
