Khabekhnet


The ancient Egyptian artisan Khabekhnet lived in Deir el-Medina on the west bank of the Nile, opposite Thebes, during the reigns of Ramesses II. He was a son of Sennedjem and Iyneferti, and was married to Sahti and probably Isis. He was buried in Tomb TT2 in the village necropolis.
His titles included Servant in the Place of Truth, meaning that he worked on the excavation and decoration of the nearby royal tombs.
The scenes in TT2 show many of the relatives of both Khabekhnet and Sahte. Khabekhnet's children include his sons Sennedjem II. This scene places Khabekhnet and Sahte in the first half of the reign of Ramesses II.
