Hello EoH,
SC: Yes, I understand this but since vertical glyphs are always read from top to bottom (honorific transposition aside), the sieve glyph would surely appear at the top (or thereabouts). The more I consider this the more it looks to me that Vyse/Raven/Hill had what was originally a horizontal 'master' and simply copied this into this chamber, simply rotating the horizontal 90* to the vertical, thereby creating these 'inconsistencies' with the cartouche oval which, imo, was drawn vertically in-situ.
Regards,
SC

EoH: Your rendering of the glyphs in the first image in your post is indeed the way it ought to have been written if done in situ, but then the orientation of your cartouche is inverted - the horizontal line would come after his name and not before.
