Objects triangulated individually
This should be should be primary headings, distinct from “Ceramic vessels," "Figurines," "Metal artifacts," "Seal impressions," and "Other objects," which should be secondary headings. By making this distinction, it will be clearer that “Ceramic vessels," "Figurines," "Metal artifacts," "Seal impressions," and "Other objects"are individually triangulated objects. By the same token, "Objects triangulated as lots" should be primary heading, and all headings below it should be secondary headings.
