Pages 107 and 110. Since the earlier part of this volume was printed off, the pyramids of Pepi, and his son, Merenra, have been identified. They belong, as might have been expected, to the Saccarah group, and correspond to Nos. 1 and 2 on Colonel Howard Vyse's plan. The sepulchral chambers, which contained the bodies of the kings, are covered with hieroglyphics of a religious and funereal character.
