Could you imagine gazing upon the face of a king who walked the Earth over three millennia ago, his features astonishingly preserved, almost as if he merely sleeps? Such is the captivating reality of King Seti I, whose mummy stands as one of the most remarkably intact human remains in Egyptian history. His very name, "Seti," meaning "Belonging to the god Set," hints at the profound religious and cultural context of his reign.

Seti I ruled Egypt at the zenith of its power, a period of grandeur and prosperity that saw significant military campaigns and monumental building projects. He passed away approximately 3,298 years ago, leaving behind a monumental legacy, most notably as the father of one of ancient Egypt's most celebrated pharaohs, Ramses II, often referred to as Ramses the Great. The era of Seti I also marked a peak in the sophisticated art of mummification. His preservation exemplifies the meticulous techniques of the New Kingdom, showcasing an advanced understanding of embalming.

Upon viewing his mummy, some observers are struck by its dark, almost black coloration and might mistakenly believe it was subjected to burning. However, this distinctive hue is a fascinating result of the chemical interaction between certain embalming materials and the body itself. Specifically, the use of **natron salt**, a naturally occurring mineral compound crucial to the mummification process, played a significant role. Natron contains various substances, including compounds that efficiently absorb fluids from the body and others that facilitate the formation of cells capable of inhibiting bacterial growth. It is this complex interaction, rather than charring, that imparted the dark, preserved appearance to his skin. While mummification techniques continued to evolve through subsequent dynasties, with the 21st Dynasty even seeing mummies painted to resemble natural skin tones, Seti I's mummy remains an unparalleled example of the artistry and scientific understanding of ancient Egyptian embalmers, widely regarded as one of the most perfectly preserved mummies ever discovered.

this is not a normal script on a Temple
It is one of the most romantic speech ever from a king to his beloved queen "Nefertiti" on the walls of the Pharaoh Echnaton Temple.

I ask you Lord by the Glory of God "your light", make her the only light inside my heart, the everlasting light which is never to be put out, and make me her unbreakable backbone, because she is a part of me, and me is a part of her, and we are the secret of life to each other
