It seems 2008 is not the year when you will stop
making heavy pronouncements that something does not exist
because *you* have been *unable* to find it.

xf-t : Gesicht = face
-t is the feminine marker.
Various derivatives like "temples", etc
Variant form : xp-t
Also used as a preposition : xft : "in front of"
