The depiction of the family of Menihy on a lintel found at Abusir South attracts attention due to a component present in the compound personal names of his children. All but one of them have names including the element tjenenet, which is remarkable in the context of previously found mentions of the tjenenet sanctuary at Abusir South. The lintel belongs to the Sixth Dynasty finds discovered at the Czech archaeological con cession that had originally been part of tombs or cult places and were destroyed already in antiquity. Some reflections on the function of the tjenenet are included.
