[Classweb-users] DT62.T6 vs. BL2450.F8

[Paul G Weiss]

We will change the caption at DT62.T6 to "Tombs. Grave goods" and add a Cf. note to BL2450.F8 for Funeral rites and ceremonies.

Hello,

There seem to be two equally valid class numbers for ancient Egyptian 
funeral customs/rites:

DT62.T6          ... Ancient Egypt. Egyptology--Special topics, 
A-Z--Tombs. Funeral customs
BL2450.F8      ... Ancient Egypt--Special deities and topics, 
A-Z--Funeral rites

Perhaps "Funeral customs" should be deleted and a see reference added at 
DT62.T6  "For works on funeral rites see BL2450.F8"  Or, perhaps notes 
should be added to explain the difference, if indeed there is one?

Thank you,
Margaret W. Hughes
