None of the ship captains listed in that part of the Iliad were known to have ever come from or gone to Egypt. I’m wondering if maybe one of the sailors on one of the ships ended up there though and that’s why the scrap was included in their wrappings.

Maybe, or the dead guy (?) had grown up in one of those towns, or somewhere else in Greece. Regardless, sounds like a big fan of the Iliad. It would be nice if strotium in his or her teeth were checked to narrow down where he or she grew up.
