Mastaba

A mastaba (/ˈmæstəbə/, /ˈmɑːstɑːbɑː/ or /mɑːˈstɑːbɑː/) or pr-djt (meaning house for eternity or eternal house), is a type of ancient Egyptian tomb in the form of a flat-roofed, rectangular structure with outward sloping sides, constructed out of mud-bricks (from the Nile River) or stone. Mastabas marked the burial sites of many eminent Egyptians during Egypt's Early Dynastic Period and Old Kingdom. During the Old Kingdom, kings began to be buried in pyramids instead of mastabas, although non-royal use of mastabas continued for more than a thousand years.

Tomb of Ti, West Saqqara

As part of my amazing Khemit School of Ancient Mysticism tour, day 2 we stopped off in Saqqara, to explore some tombs of nobility.

The point was to see how much of daily life was documented in the artwork in the tombs and how no mention of cutting or moving large stones, or building large structures is ever shown.

In this clip, Mohamed Ibrahim and Yousef Awyan, who are my guides and directors at the company, talk about the term Pharaoh and its meanings along with some other fascianting clues to the lost history of Egypt.

I turned off the video camera at the very end as the local watcher asked me for money to video and I just wasn't sure of how the tipping worked at that particular time in my trip and being a little nervous, I shut it off. You can see photos of what lies in the actual tomb on wikipedia and other sources.

EGYPT 696 - NEFERMAAT & ITET Mastaba *MEIDUM IV*(by Egyptahotep)

NEFERMAAT & ITET (or Atet) mastaba:
Nefermaat's titulary was elaborate and impressive, including general titles such as member of the elite, priestly titles such as priest of Bastet and civil titles like royal seal bearer and vizier. A relief found in his tomb describes him as 'he is the one who made his gods in writing that cannot be erased', an indication that he was looking for ways to make reliefs more durable, Are known 5 Nefermaat's sons (but there are others): those 5 sons are Buneb, Shepsesneb, Ankhreshet, Nebkhenet and the most famous of them,Hemiunu, the architect who built the pyramid of Khufu Giza.
Nefermaat was buried in a mastaba at Meidum (num 16), near the pyramid built there by his father. As Snofru was finally buried in the so-called Red Pyramid at Dashur, some 40 kilometres to the North it is very likely that Nefermaat died when Meidum was still intended as the royal cemetery. As recent archaeological research has led to the assumption that Snofru abandonned Meidum between his 15th and 28th year, Nefermaat probably died before Snofru's 15th year. In any case, he died before his father did, since it was his younger half brother Kheops who became the next king.Nefermaat's wife was a woman named Itet, who bore the title 'known to the king'. This title is often taken to indicate a person that was part of the royal entourage, often a more distant relative. She may have gained her title through her marriage with the son of the king. The names of her parents are not known.
This tomb has become famous due a fragment of painted plaster, representing some geese, known as The Meidum Geese.
in this video you can see, views of their mastaba, and some of its paintings,including the famous geese.
