Qenna was the name of a merchant in Ancient Egypt.[1] Qenna's tomb contained the Papyrus of Qenna, a part of the Book of the Dead.[1]

The papyrus is in the collection of the Royal Museum of Antiquities in Leiden, and is about 50 ft long.[2] The papyrus includes spell 151, which refers to embalming.[3]
