Tomb of Menna TT69 in the Valley of the Nobles Luxor Thebes




Menna attends the gathering of the crop. He is represented inside a kiosk, seated on a folding stool, with his feet resting on a small pad. In his left hand he holds his staff of office and in the other he holds a folded piece of cloth.



Facing him is a servant wearing a white kilt, holding the front column of the kiosk with his right hand. In the other he holds a yellow container. Behind him is a tree with its branches laden with fruit. The tree also contains nests which include eggs or chicks. Two large boxes, of different shape, have been placed at the bottom of the tree.
To the right, standing at the other side of the tree, is a scribe (his palette is in his left hand). He is in command of the workers who are occupying the rest of the register, men carry out work in the field, harvesting the crop.
