Saturday, December 12, 1925 (continued)

(1) G 6022 and G 6031 boundary stela (continued)
low parapet led from the two stela gently upwards to south. Abutting the parapets the two mastabas were built; G 6022 on west and G 6031 on east. The faces of these mastabas have little batter and were weak so that the east and south walls of G 6022 and the north, west and south walls of G 6031 are crumbling even though supported by the addition of masonry which was built over the parapets of the inclined way.
