Daninos in 1900-1901. While Daninos' findings were acquired by the Cairo Museum, other pieces had already been offered on the market. The hoard was predominantly composed of plaques representing offering-bearers or royal figures accompanied by cartouches with royal or divine names. Despite being found in Memphis, these pieces were originally from Thebes, were they were probably set in offering stands or similar temple furniture. According to G. Daressy, they were probably looted during the Persian invasion in 525 B.C. and stored in Memphis to be melted. For a discussion on these pieces, see G. Daressy, 'Une trouvaille de bronze à Mit Rahineh', in Annales du Service des Antiquités, no. 3, 1902, pp.139-150 and L. Coulon, 'Les Plaques de Bronze Trouvées à Memphis par Daninos', in Egypte, Afrique and Orient, 2009-2010, no.56, pp.53-64.
