Part of end of south wall of a fresco decorated passageway leading to shrine with remains statues Menna and Henut-Tawy in TT69.

Pictured is part of the end of the south wall of a fresco decorated passageway leading to a shrine with remains of statues of Menna and his wife Henut-Tawy in Theban Tomb No. 69. This part depicts Thoth recording the results of the weighing of the heart of Menna. The entire fresco depicts the funeral procession before the Goddess of the West and Anubis and the weighing of the heart before Osiris. Horus is weighing the heart and the god Thoth above is recording the findings. TT69 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 and he was the field overseer of Amun in ancient Egypt.
