Notes: There is no field card for U.15592A. It seems more likely that this 'kettle' is U.15556, since that item is a badly broken spouted pot of this very type and comes from PFG/Z, a grave for which UPM received most other pots and the entire skeleton. But the spout on that example is said to be missing.     
[1] The original card for this addition of subletter to U.15592 does not exist in its original form. This transcript is from a later typed version.
