介绍（中）	Nespekashuty墓外的庭院垃圾反映了长时间的使用，这种情况使在那里发现的彩绘奥斯特拉卡的年代和理解变得复杂。然而，最近的一项文体研究允许其中一些按时间顺序分组。马（23.3.33）和跳跃的狮子（23.3.28）用红色的初步草图完成，最后用一条细而柔软的黑线完成;这种技术类似于代尔巴赫里的拉美赛德艺术家。切开的鳄鱼（23.3.30）与托勒密时期已知的奥斯特拉卡关系最好。第三组，包括小牛（23.3.27），盲人竖琴师（23.3.31）和花卉首都（23.3.34，23.3.35）似乎与Nespekashuty墓同时代的。在这些上面，初步绘图是用淡红色墨水执行的，上面覆盖着深红色的最后一条线;宽轮廓线是通过短的重叠描边创建的。该技术类似于Nespekashuty墓第一个房间墙壁上的初步图纸中指出的技术。然后，这些奥斯特拉卡可以丢弃用于墓葬装饰的初步草图。
介绍（英）	The courtyard rubbish outside Nespekashuty's tomb reflects long periods of use, a situation which complicates the dating and understanding of the painted ostraka found there. A recent stylistic study has allowed some of them to be grouped chronologically, however. The horse (23.3.33) and leaping lion (23.3.28) are done with red preliminary sketches, finalized with a thin, supple black line; this technique resembles that of the Ramesside artists from Deir el Bahri. The incised crocodile (23.3.30) relates best to ostraka known from the Ptolemaic Period. A third group, including a calf (23.3.27), blind harpist (23.3.31), and floral capitals (23.3.34, 23.3.35) appears to be contemporary with the tomb of Nespekashuty. On these, the preliminary drawing was executed in a pale red ink that was overlaid with a final line in darker red; wide contour lines were created by short overlapping strokes. The technique resembles that noted in preliminary drawings on the walls of the first chamber of Nespekashuty's tomb. These ostraka then may be discarded preliminary sketches for the tomb decoration.
