Schematic

 Note 1:  This schematic is shown in the conventional orientation with column 1 on the right.  This table, uniquely among diagonal tables described to date, actually reads left to right (although some of the names, labels, and individual signs face in the opposite direction).  For a fuller description, see Cockcroft & Symons (2013), available online here

Note 2: The cell (2,DR), although unreadable, contains traces of blue paint rather than the red used for date labels, indicating that this cell, and possibly others in the date row, originally contained a decan name.

Notes

The 'directional' features of this table make it unique. The whole table appears to be reflected through a vertical axis. The horizontal strip starts at the large red dot, as in other tables, but the hieroglyphs are facing away from the dot. The entries of hieroglyphs in the date row are also oppositely oriented.

In at least two occurrences, the date row contains ordinary decans so that this table either has 9 or 10 rows depending on which column is considered.

The vertical strip contains an ordinary decan at the bottom - which is also unique amongst diagonal star tables.

It is unclear whether or not this table completely lacks two ordinary decans (19 bAwy and 25 rmn Xry) like the other type T tables, but they are not visible in the surviving areas.
