介绍（中）	赫卡纳赫特是第十二王朝早期底比斯（今卢克索）人。作为一名高级官员的"ka仆人"，他负责高级官员的雕像崇拜，以及为维持这一崇拜而捐赠的土地和收入的管理。赫卡纳赫特和一名或多名抄写员在纸莎草纸上写下的信件和账目是由博物馆挖掘机赫伯特·E·温洛克在1921-1922年的挖掘季节在梅塞墓中发现的，梅塞墓在维齐尔·伊皮的陵墓群中有一个侧通道和地下室，这是悬崖边的一座岩石切割墓，俯瞰着代尔赫里的寺庙。这些文件——有些在被发现时仍然折叠、捆绑和密封——为生活在近4000年前的普通中产阶级家庭的家庭和财务提供了独特的见解这是信I的正面（正面），可能是Heqanakht自己写的，从右到左依次写在一张原始的纸莎草纸上，用黑色墨水书写。它是写给Heqanakht的家人的，特别是一个叫Merisu的人，他是一个负责家庭运作和生产的管家。在信中，Heqanakht指示派遣两个人（Nakht，可能是Merisu的副手，Sinebniut，一名下属）在一个名为Perhaa的地方租用土地。他对之前租赁的土地的租金发表了评论，并指示了为Nakht前往佩尔哈执行任务时提供的口粮链接到关于古埃及抄写员的博客显示迹象：伊尔蒂森石碑上的象形文字和调色板
介绍（英）	Heqanakht was a native of Thebes (present day Luxor) during the early twelfth dynasty. As "ka-servant" of a high official he was responsible for the high official's statue cult and the administration of the land and income that had been endowed to maintain this cult. The letters and accounts written by Heqanakht and one or more scribes on sheets of papyrus were discovered by Museum excavator Herbert E. Winlock in the excavation season of 1921-1922 in the tomb of Meseh, who had a side passage and crypt in the tomb complex of the vizier Ipy, one of the rock cut tombs along the cliff overlooking the temples at Deir el-Bahri. The documents - some still folded, tied and sealed, when found - provide unique insights into the domestic and financial affairs of an average middle class family that lived almost four thousand years ago. This is the front side (recto) of letter I, written, probably by Heqanakht himself, in columns from right to left on a pristine sheet of papyrus in hieratic script with black ink. It is addressed to Heqanakht's family, specifically to a man called Merisu, who was a kind of steward responsible for the functioning of the household and its production. In the letter Heqanakht gives instructions to send two individuals (Nakht, possibly Merisu's deputy, and Sinebniut, a subordinate) to rent land in a place named Perhaa. He makes comments on the rental fee of land previously leased and gives directions about the rations to be provided for the man Nakht on his mission to Perhaa.
