Заголовок сообщения:  Texts from the Mastaba of Meresankh III at Giza
The tomb of Meresankh (G 7530, PM III2, 197–99) has the best-preserved
chapel in the field of royal mastabas to the east of the Great Pyramid, which
cemetery was mostly reserved for relatives and descendants of Khufu. It is
the oldest well-preserved tomb at Giza. Meresankh seems to have been the
daughter of Kaiwab, probably the eldest son of Khufu, and Hetepheres; both
persons are shown in her tomb. Bones, perhaps belonging to Meresankh,
were found in the burial and suggest that she might have been about fifty at
death. Dates of her death and burial are recorded, but the reign is unknown;
depending on the date of her birth, her death is to be placed in
either the reigns of Menkaure or Shepseskaf. She would have been married
to either Khafre or Menkaure. The sarcophagus was originally made for her
mother. See also quarry marks and captions from this tomb in no. 84.
