Here is located Menna, seated on a folding stool with the top covered by an animal skin. The seat rests on a reed mat. Above and behind Menna, the text states: "Enjoying himself with the work of the fields, by the great confidant of the Lord of the Two Lands, in [his] wish [……] the eyes of the King in every place, Overseer of the estate [of Amon, Men]na, justified before the great god." Here he carries out his official position with his staff of office in his left hand and a folded piece of cloth in the other. His face and several portions of the text have been destroyed. As usual, he is dressed in a long semi-transparent garment over a short white pleated kilt, with the end of the long sash-belt hanging down the side of the stool. He is adorned with a broad necklace and wrist-bracelets.
