But Giza wasn't the only funerary complex. Funerary complexes where several family members might have been placed together are found in many places, Abusir or Saqqara being two examples. But, in these cases, there is no evidence of any design being planned in advance.

Bear in mind that Khufu didn't finish Sneferu's pyramid. So why should he have expected his descendants to finish his supposedly pre-existing plan? And why did Khufu's immediate successor, Djedefre, arrange for Abu Rowash to be his funerary site?
