Professor Maspero, Director of Antiquities and Excavations in Egypt, on June 9, in presence of General Sir F. Stephenson and other English officers, at the Boulak Museum, Cairo, unbandaged two ancient mummies discovered in 1881 at Deir-el Bahari, Luxor, Egypt. On the left can be seen the body of 17th Dynasty Pharaoh Sekenen-Ra Ta-aken, with his skull cleft by a battle axe, and on the right the 19th dynasty ruler Seti I, father of Rameses II, with whom he shares an "astonishing resemblance", the accompanying article claims. After the unwrapping, Seti I was pronounced to be "the most beautiful mummy head ever seen at the museum". See 10013317.
