@AHC_Channel @stijnvdhoven Hey.. Regarding the rock-cut mastabas next to Khentkawas, there are detailed descriptions by Selim Hassan, Excavations At Giza, Vol. III, 1931-1932. Screenshots in this thread if of interest.
Starting with Mastaba I.
Mastaba of Shaft 648.
Then we have the Mastaba of Bw-Nefer, a wife of Shepseskaf, in the eastern part of GCF1.
More on tomb of Bw-Nefer...
Some pics from inside.
Mastaba of Se-Ankhw in GCF1.
A bit more from the tomb of Se-Ankhw.
And a few more pictures from The Mastaba of Bw-Nefer.
Hassan's book is probably online. Just found the PDF on my computer. I'll look for a link asap. There is a lot more detail, especially on the Mastaba of Bw-Nefer.
Last but not least, Mastaba H.
Pics from Mastaba H.

What geological engineers said who studied the composition and nature of the rocks of Sacsayhuaman: “It is impossible to be a process of nature.” Image
They continue: “The base blocks of the first level were scanned. The rocks are of low density, covered with an artificial shell.” Image
“The blocks are not compact but are agglomerates, showing that the material used was collected in a quarry, later it was ground and used in a mixture to create block molds.” Image
