Mastaba made up of 10 rooms, 5 of which are decorated and the others act as stores.

Built by the vizier Ihy, who lived during the reign of King Ounas, this mastaba was later usurped by the princess Sech-Sechet, known as Idout. It comprises 10 rooms, only 5 of which are decorated; the others are thought to have served as storerooms. Along with Ti, Princess Idout's mastaba is the most finely worked in the necropolis. Among the mural representations, the aquatic element predominates. There are scenes of hippopotamus hunting, angling and netting with different species of fish.

Rien a voir avec l'intérieur des pyramides ou il n'y a rien a voir. Ici il y a des dessins et les couleurs sont encore visibles
