Sethi I

Sethi I Before succeeding his father,Sethi I had his same titles.In order to restaure the power of Egypt after the Amarnian period of instability,he started errecting great constructions in the country.
His 13 years of reign formed a real period of renaissance: art and culture reached a high degree of sophistication that the following rulers would never be able to reach.He married Touya the daughter of Raia (chars' lieutenant). Their 1st child was a boy who died young,the 2nd(Tia) and the 3rd was Ramses II .
Sethi's tomb is considered as one of the most beautiful in Egypt,especially its astronomical ceiling in the funerary chamber where constellations and gods are figured.

Ramses II

Ramses II is considered as the most famous king that has ever ruled Egypt. He ruled for almost 67 years and died at the age of 92. No other king had the number of children Ramses II had:he is said to have had almost 200 sons and daughters from 8 royal wives and numerous concubines. His constructions are all over Egypt,the most famous of them would definitely be the hypostyle hall in karnak temple and Abou Simbel temple.
One of the most important events during his reign was the war against the hitites and the peace treaty he signed with them:this was the 1st peace treaty to have ever been signed in the world.On all his temples we can see drawings representing the famous Qadesh battle against the hitites.The latter one was discovered by the Swiss Johann Ludwig Burckhadt in 1813 and Giovanni Belzoni was the 1st to enter it in 1817.This temple is best known for a great phenomenon which occurs twice a year : the sun falls on the faces of each statue in the sanctuary on the 22nd of october and the 22nd of february which are the dates of birth and coronation of the king.

Psousennes I

Psousennes' tomb-in Tanis-wasfound intact. It is the only tomb that was found unrobbed unlike Tout Ankh Amon's which was pillaged twice.

The king's sarcophagus had been used 170 years earlier for the funeral of Merenptah . His body was therefore found in a bad state.
