This relief shows
King Seti I on his
throne at his
coronation carrying
the crook and flail
scepters symbols of
kingship, wearing the
Atef crown and
supported on one side
by Edjo, the cobra
Goddess of Upper
Egypt and by Nekhbet,
the vulture Goddess
of Lower Egypt in the
missing part of the
relief, both in the
guise of elegant
Queens. A capable
ruler, excellent
field commander and
energetic builder,
Seti I embarked on a
series of military
campaigns in an
effort to secure the
boundaries of Egypt,
echoing the
achievement of Kings
of the XVIII dynasty
before Akhenaten. The
sculpted reliefs of
this reign attained a
degree of refinement
rarely excelled,
particularly in the
colorful scenes of
the Abydos temple and
his royal tomb in the
Valley of the Kings.
The tomb, the deepest
and longest in the
valley, established
an entirely new type
of layout, an
extended tunnel
decorated with
elaborate
representations of
the journey of the
sun, incorporating
the king, through the
night sky and the
mysteries of solar
rebirth. Seti I was
seceded by his son,
the famous Ramses II
The Great.
