- Remarks
- GW 1 was a small mud and rough stone mastaba, apparently with burial unexcavated, that appears with wood marker number "1" in photos of eastern edge of wadi cemetery. George Reisner also gave the number GW 1 for a grave "in trial pit in path of upper dump heap" with burial excavated in January 1904 (exact location unknown).
