Ceramic with over-glazed painting: During the 2007 small object inventory there was some confusion between this object, 21.2, and the object now in embark as 21.1.
After exhaustive research, the following information was gathered:
Each of these two tiles were found with the numbers now given to them painted on their verso in red paint. Yet, according to the log book and catalog cards, these two tiles were characterized as both being "Glazed pottery with over glazed painting. Decorated with a design of birds and flowers in blue and black. Dug up on site of a private bath in Hamadan, 1918." While this description matches the tile found painted and now considered 21.2, it does not match the tile found painted and now considered 21.1. To further confuse matters, the log book and catalog cards both mention that the tile 21.1 was broken. In 2007, only 21.2 was found to be broken (upper left corner). In addition, the dimensions documented in the log book and catalog cards for both objects are incorrect, but incorrect to a greater degree for the tile painted and now considered 21.1.
One possible hypothesis is that the original tile accessioned into the collection as 21.1 was either lost or completely destroyed at one point, and the tile found numbered and now considered 21.1 was "found in collection" and took the place of 21.1. Whether this decision was made knowingly or out of ignorance is unclear.
Another possible hypothesis that the the tile found numbered and now considered 21.2 was originally 21.1 (which may account for the description of the tile that entered the collection as 21.1 being "broken") and the tile that entered the collection as 21.2 was lost or destroyed at one point. The tile found numbered and now considered 21.1 was "found in collection" and mistakenly took the place of 21.1 and the tile that entered the collection as 21.1 was mistakenly numbered as 21.2.
A true mystery indeed.
Conclusion: In order to reduce confusion in the future when working with the objects in storage, the numbers painted on the verso of each tile in red remain and those designations now define their identity. Although this may not be as they were entered into the collection, the tile painted 21.1 is now considered 21.1 and the tile painted 21.2 is now considered 21.2. At the present time, it is impossible to prove otherwise.
See the object files for more information.
