Details

    S 2497/2515
  • Site Type
    Stone-built mastaba
  • Shafts
    S 2497; S 2511; S 2515; S 2516; serdab (?); chapel
  • Remarks
    Mastaba is south of S 2517/2518 which is against south wall of G 1362, and east of S 2499/2521. Mastaba is drawn but not labeled on plans. Junker's text on p. 152 of Giza 9 calls this S 2497/2515, probably in error.
