Mummy of Seti I
The mummy of Seti I was buried in an elegant alabaster sarcophagus in his tomb (KV17) in the Valley of the Kings, West Thebes. His mummy was later moved to the Deir el-Bahari cache (“DB320”).
Although the mummy’s skull was separated from the body by tomb-robbers, the head is still well preserved; the body, however, is in poor condition.
An X-ray reveals that the left side of his chest was stuffed with hard black masses of resin-impregnated linen and the king still wears an amulet on his left arm. The mummy’s skin was brown when it was first uncovered in 1886.
Now in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo. JE 26213
