Iput I And Khuit Pyramids

Pyramid of Iput:

Iput was perhaps the first principal queen of Teti the founder of the Sixth Dynasty, and may have legitimized his ascent to the throne of Egypt. Perhaps she was the daughter of Unas the last king in the Fifth Dynasty and mother of the successor Teti, Pepi I.
This complex is about 90 meters north of the Teti Pyramid, and has no valley temple, causeway or cult pyramid. It contains a number of unusual features such as the funeral temple on the eastern side of the pyramid.

Her burial chamber contained a limestone sarcophagus with a cedar coffin; her remains were found inside the burial chamber. Some of her funeral equipment was also found inside the burial chamber as her canopic vessels, a golden bracelet and a headset with polished red pottery and a rock crystal cup.

It is believed that the pyramid was originally a Mastaba and later turned into a pyramid possibly after her son, Pepi I, ascended to the throne.
 

The Pyramid of Khuit:

The pyramid of one of Teti's other wives, Khuit, is located next to the first Iput pyramid, north of the complex.
The funerary temple is located in front of the pyramid's eastern wall. Little of this seems to have been excavated, but the previously excavated offering hall has a regular false door and altar. The offering bearers decorated the walls.

The pyramid's original entrance was on the north side of the pyramid on the courtyard floor. A landing corridor leading to the burial room and its east storage room were reached. The burial chamber is located below the vertical axis of the pyramid. The dimensions of the pyramid are not available.

The pyramids of Iput and Khuit were discovered between July 1897 and February 1989 by Victor Loret north of the Teti Pyramid complex in Saqqara.
