[ILLUSTRATION]

Lid and sarcophagus badly broken by plunderers. No inscription. This lies north - south against the west side of room, which is built up with masonry (no lined), similarly to G 2150 A. The second sarcophagus is a very good one of red-granite, apparently quite undamaged. Same shape as limestone sarcophagus but smaller. Along its south side, which is against the south wall of room, is a single line of well-cut incised inscription finishing with the owner's name Seshemnefer. Both lids are slid off to one side, and there are no bones visible anywhere. The room is half-full of debris, among which is visible a part of a seated statuette of (?) granite, only the legs. Another room, unfinished, half the height of the main room, leads off to the east, and appears to have originally been sealed up with stones and cement, but is now open and empty.
