Mastaba G 2185 developed as in sketch above. Mud brick walls are cased with limestone. In the niche in front of the serdab there was the body of a larger statuette [MFA 12.1483] (fine work) leaning against the niche. The corridor was occupied by X-pits which were dug after decay of cemetery. In the debris along the corridor we found fragments of a stela (or two stelae) with very delicate reliefs similar to the Khufu work. These stelae did not come from G 2185 but some other mastaba.
At sunset removed the three statuettes and the fragments of stelae to the house.
