(1) G 6022
An examination of G 6022 east wall showed that the addition ended with a small stela [ILLUSTRATION with GLYPHS] [Shepseskafankh] perhaps a boundary stela. Just opposite in the addition of G 6031 was another exactly like it. The space between is about one
meter and both face north.
[ILLUSTRATION]
The stela rest on rock below but are buried to the cartouche in the floor of these small mastabas.
These appear to be boundary stone belonging to G 6040. The core of G 6022 was constructed first abutting the boundary on the west. Then the core of G 6031, abutting the eastern stone. Then first one, then the other mastaba was enlarged. G 6023 was constructed after G 6022 was enlarged and the wall added to G 6022 was removed on north of G 6022 and partly on east. If G 6022 had been built after G 6023, then it would have abutted directly on G 6023, and have had no north face. But G 6023 being stone-cased was built with a south wall. These stela and walls of G 6022 and G 6031 require further examination.
