These are believed to be the wifes of Unas, in whose pyramid the first example of the Pyramid Texts were inscribed on the walls. His pyramid is located almost directly outside the wall of the Step Pyramid Complex, and his queens´ tomb not far from his is a double mastaba, which is quite unusual.
Anyway, Nebet is believed to be the mother of Wenisakh, a prince, then probably son of Unas and her mastaba, which is well preserved, has reliefs with harem scenes.
The mastaba of Khenet is ruined. That they were buried outside of the Unas pyramid complex indicates that the relationship with Unas isn´t totally clear.
