LUXOR Tombs of the Nobles. Menna   Menna was a 15th century scribe and inspector of estates in all of Egypt. Although not on the top list among the tombs here, it is still well worth a visit. And there are things to look out for. You will see that the images of Mena have the eyes hacked out, which probably was done by some of his rivals who wanted to deprive him of the capacity of seeing in the afterlife. The walls contain nice images of his entire family, giving gifts to their father. There is also a niche for statues of Menna and his wife.Also note the fine paintings showing hunting and fishing scenes, with lifelike representations of crocodiles, wild cats and fish.
