Osiris portion of a fresco in the south wing end wall of the transverse chamber of TT69 featuring the worship of Osiris.

Pictured is the Osiris portion of a fresco in the south wing end wall of the transverse chamber of TT69 with Menna and his wife Henut-Tawy worshipping Osiris. TT69, Theban Tomb No. 69, is in the area known as the Tombs of the Nobles on the West Bank at Luxor in the hills of Sheikh Abd el-Qurna. After construction the face of Menna was destroyed by vandals to deprive him of his afterlife. Menna held the title of Scribe of the Fields of the Lord of the Two Lands of Upper and Lower Egypt. He was the field overseer of Amun in ancient Egypt.
