F.Ll. Griffith, Egypt Exploration Fund Archaeological Report 1902-1903 (1903), 12: “A scheme has been approved for the sale of entire mastabas from Sakkareh to the museums of Europe and America. It is hoped that when such can be obtained at a moderate figure the directors of museums will be less eager to buy odd blocks and fragments broken out by robbers, and that so the robbers will give up their detestable trade.” JSTOR 41932207
