Halakhah for Yoma 3:9

בָּא לוֹ לְמִזְרַח הָעֲזָרָה, לִצְפוֹן הַמִּזְבֵּחַ, הַסְּגָן מִימִינוֹ וְרֹאשׁ בֵּית אָב מִשְּׂמֹאלוֹ. וְשָׁם שְׁנֵי שְׂעִירִים, וְקַלְפִּי הָיְתָה שָׁם וּבָהּ שְׁנֵי גוֹרָלוֹת. שֶׁל אֶשְׁכְּרוֹעַ הָיוּ, וַעֲשָׂאָן בֶּן גַּמְלָא שֶׁל זָהָב, וְהָיוּ מַזְכִּירִין אוֹתוֹ לְשָׁבַח:

He came to the east of the azarah, to the north of the altar, the adjutant high-priest at his right and the head of the patriarchal house at his left, and there the two goats stood [For they did not bring the goats between the Ulam and the altar when they wished to place the ballots upon them; but they stood in the azarah until the time of slaughtering.], and there was a kalpi there [a hollow wooden box], and in it two ballots of box-wood [a fine wood]; and Ben Gamla [Yehoshua b. Gamla, when he was appointed high-priest] made them of gold, and he received honorable mention.
