In 1931-1932 , the expedition of the
Cairo
University in
Giza
revealed what was thought to be an incomplete pyramid , a building called 'Lepsius 100' . This building resembles a huge sarcophagus , similar to Shepseskaf's tomb . Discoveries assured that this tomb belonges to Khentkawes .
As much as the origins of Khentkawes are concerned , most opinions agree that she was the daughter of Mycerinus , although we have no evidence to prove that .
She was married to Shepseskaf . She outlived him and existed during Djedefptah's reign . Later on , she married Re's high priest who was called Userkaf and who founded the Fifth Dynasty . She was the mother of Userkaf's sons:
Sahure
and Neferirkare .
