F unerary
complex of the pharaoh Djedkare Isesi was erected in South Saqqara by
Senedjemib, the overseer of works. In northern side of the pyramid there
is entrance with chapel (A) where a descending passage equipped with a
special chamber (B) and a device with falling
down
stones (C) leads to antechamber and burial chamber (D) with
two-side slopped roof made of limestone blocks and at east side
connected to niche-like antechamber (E). Botch chambers and basalt
sarcophagus had been largely destroyed, however reminders of the king’s
mummy were found. East of the pyramid there is a mortuary temple, once
finely decorated, to north and south part of which are associated four
courtyards. East-north is located funerary complex, rather incorrectly
ascribed to one of queens (T. Schneider ).
