- Remarks
- Mastaba is against east wall of G 4840. May possibly be identical to unnumbered mastabas of Tjentet and Wehemnefret (excavated by Schiaparelli). Includes intrusive shafts: S 981, S 983, S 985, & S 986. Mastaba is drawn but not labeled on plan EG019920. There are at least 4 drawn but unlabeled shafts abutting north end of S 984 which may include S 1031 and S 1032 which are visible on photo AEOS_I_5893.
