Menna

The Ancient Egyptian artisan Menna was "Scribe of the Fields of the Lord of the Two Lands", probably during the reign of Thutmose IV during the 18th dynasty. He was buried in a well decorated tomb, TT69, located in the Sheikh Abd el-Qurna district of the Maadi, opposite Luxor in Egypt.

TT69

The Theban Tomb TT69 is located in Sheikh Abd el-Qurna, part of the Theban Necropolis, on the west bank of the Nile, opposite Luxor. It is the burial place of the Ancient Egyptian Menna, who was Scribe of the Fields of the Lord of the Two Lands, probably during the reign of Thutmose IV, in the 18th dynasty

Nilotic landscape

Nilotic landscape is any artistic representation of landscapes that emulates or is inspired by the Nile river in Egypt. The term was coined to refer primarily to such landscapes created outside of Egypt, especially in the Aegean, though it is occasionally used to refer to scenes of hunting and fishing in Egyptian art. A nilotic landscape is a river scene with rich and abundant plant and animal life, much of which is native to Egypt. Common iconographic elements include papyrus, palm trees, fish and water birds, and in some cases felines, monkeys, and/or crocodile.

Archaeological evidence attests to painted depictions of the Nile in Egyptian tombs as early as the Predynastic period. Nilotic scenes remain popular throughout the Old and Middle Kingdoms, and flourish in the New Kingdom. Of particular prominence are landscapes in tombs paintings of the 18th dynasty of Egypt. Nilotic landscapes are first adapted outside of Egypt in the Aegean, notably in the art of the Minoan civilization. The motif enjoys a renaissance in the Roman Empire, when nilotic scenes become a common subject for mosaics.

The production of nilotic landscapes as well as their iconography and interpretations depend on the provenance of the work and the culture in which it was produced, but most scenes on the whole affirm and celebrate the abundance of nature
