Firstly, the Cairo Museum is not the only museum giving me the "tba" answers. This is a tiny snapshot of only one of the museums being recorded. A surprising amount of museums have no online (complete) collection.
This particular area has been supplemented by the resources shared on the Hatshepsut Project blog, but in some areas i am running out of data at an alarming rate. That said, the right enquiries will help to fill in the gaps, but will take time.
I will start sharing further museums i have been able to track down and will also add data to the Semna, Kumma Temples question posed here
As far as the Metropolitan Museum of Art (MMA)- they will be added to the database shortly. From then on it will be smaller collections, then Berlin. The Berlin Museum is so far one of the least researched by me to date, although some of their larger items have been noted, just without full data.
Further details will follow.
Regards,
Stuart
