Virtual Tour of the Mastaba of Khufukhaf I
You can navigate through the tomb and click on any of the walls to read the inscriptions. Hovering over the inscriptions highlights a line of text and provides an English translation of the text.
From the Culnat website:
“The Mastaba of Khafkhufu I is situated in the row nearest the great pyramid in the eastern cemetery, it lies south of the pyramid causeway and east of the three queens’ pyramids. The mastaba is in fact the southern chapel (G 7140) of the double-mastaba G 7130-40. The northern chapel (G 7130) is that of his wife.
The entrance of the Khafkhufu I chapel is from the east through the mastaba doorway to the external hall (A). The only decorated part of the external hall (A) is the western wall through which passes the corridor to the main offering-chamber (B) which is also decorated. The reliefs feature the tomb owner and his family. The walls of the offering chamber are fully decorated as characteristic of the old Kingdom tombs, and show decoration items of this period including the titles of Khafkhufu.”
