During which he found around 385 tombs containing large amounts of artefacts such as pottery, beads, amulets, scarabs and seals. The Esna artefacts were then sent overseas to various museums, and due to a lack of proper record-keeping, many of the objects are difficult to locate and study. Within Australia, museums such as the Queensland Museum and the Australian Museum in Sydney received some of this Esna pottery. The research conducted on the 76 total Esna pottery assesses the overall volume of the collections, it outlines the pottery types, the tomb numbers, the inventory, other finds locations and the missing details or limitations regarding the research. Which is shown through the data from both museums, tomb 86, 150 and 250.
