Koptos Decree was a document from the Sixth Dynasty, in the reign of King Pepi I (2289-2255 B.C.E.). Found in the temple of Min at Koptos, the Decree grants immunity from taxes for all residents of the mortuary chapel for Pepi I's royal mother, Queen Iput. This chapel was engaged to Min's temple. The personnel of Queen Iputs II cult were likewise freed from the obligation of paying for the travel of officials and the call of any royal suites. Such tax-exemption decrees were popular in many periods, particularly for complexes concerned with mortuary cults.
