- Remarks
- Mastaba is east of D 80 and south of G 1015. Steindorff's D 96 and D 97 identified by Junker as a double mastaba with a single shaft and chapel. Mastaba is drawn but not labeled on Porter-Moss III plan XIV & on Junker's Giza 9 plan 2. Plan EG002029 has two D 97's. The second D 97 is a mislabel and is actually D 92 off northest corner of D 15. Map of the Western Cemetery EG002029 incorrectly labels this as Lepsius 22. Mastaba D80 is the correct Lepsius 22.
