Here,
he is serving in a priestly function as a innmutef priest symbolizing the
divine child Horus with hair in a sidelock to represent youth and dressed with
a leopard skin. As the eldest son of the royal family who cared for the
deceased king he summons the revered spirit of the King, now identified with
Osiris, and pronounces a formula before the image of his father Ramses I. 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 achievements of kings of the XVIII dynasty
before Akhenaten, he inaugurated a major program to build and refurbish
religious monuments at Thebes and Abydos. He took the additional title of
"Repeater of births" to indicate that he regarded himself as the
inaugurator of a new era. Seti I was seceded by his son, the famous Ramses
II the Great.
