Aneb-Hetch

Aneb-Hetch (White Walls, also Inbu-Hedj, White fortress) was one of 42 nomes (administrative division) in Ancient Egypt.

Aneb-Hetch was one of the 20 nomes in Lower Egypt and had district number 1.

The area of the district was about 1 cha-ta (about 2,75 hectare / 2,4 acres, 1 cha-ta equals roughly 2,75 hectare / 2.4 acres) and about 4 iteru (about 42 km / 24,8 miles, 1 iteru equals roughly 10,5 km / 6.2 miles) in length.

The Niwt (main city) was Menefer/Memphis (part of modern Mit Rahina) and among other cities were Saqqara.

Every nome was ruled by a nomarch (provincial governor) who answered directly to the pharaoh.

Every niwt had a Het net (temple) dedicated to the chief deity and a Heqa het (nomarch's residence).

The district's main deity was Horus; among others major deities were Apis, Hathor, Isis, Nefertem, Ptah, Seker and Sekhmet.

Today the area is part of the Helwan Governorate.
