| 50 A HISTORY OF EGYPT
It was on some such occasion that one of these thieves
secreted in a hole in the wall of the tomb the desiccated arm
of Zer's queen, still bearing under the close wrappings its
splendid regalia (Fig. 17). Perhaps slain in some brawl,
the robber, fortunately for us, never returned to recover his
plunder, and it was found there and brought to Petrie intact
by his well trained workmen in 1902.
