Details

  • Excavator
    George Andrew Reisner, American, 1867–1942
    Hermann Junker, German, 1877–1962
  • Site Type
    Uncertain/destroyed
  • Remarks
    Per Reisner's unpublished manuscript, this is a confused complex of superstructure and shafts in street west of G 4850 and east of G 4750 and north of southern chapel of G 4750. Junker does not discuss them and his plan in Giza 6 just shows a blank area in the street south of 4 unlabeled shafts and north of G 4750's southern chapel. Porter-Moss III plan draws but does not label G 4752. Plan EG002029 draws and labelsG 4752 in the middle of the street.
