This paper presents a small collection of artefacts uncovered in the area of the Eastern Temple at Wad Ben Naga during the excavations by the Sudanese mission in 1958–1959. The attribution of these unpublished finds to the spatial context of the temple relied on object labels preserved on their cases in the Sudan National Museum. The collection supplements the record of finds identified previously by other means. In addition, two statuettes from the same context previously known only from sketches, could be identified and described.
