Context Title: Room 1     
Context Name (Publication): Room 11     
Context Description: Entrance Lobby1     
Context Description: The front lobby (1) was an addition, made by running a new wall out from the west corner of No. 3's outbuildings to the end buttress of the wall of No. 12; it cut across an existing (rather thin) wall which now formed the NE side of the lobby; the floor was paved with burnt bricks 0.23 m. X 0.15 m., a size characteristic of the Third Dynasty and suggesting that the builders had availed themselves of material derived from some old building.2
