[edit] Father

The text box says Seti I suceeded him while the orgins paragraph says that Seti I was his father. My wife says Seti I was his son and the father of Ramesses II. I don't know enough to change it but maybe somebody else does.

The text says there was a Seti who was his father, not that it was Seti I. There should be a citiation tag on the sentance, but I do not find it unreasonable that there was a Seti who was his father... there were numerous Intefs who never ruled before the 11th dynasty intefs, for instance.

[edit] Mummy

I would not say that the identity of the Niagara mummy was conclusively established. From what I know, they established that it was a royal mummy of the 19th dynasty, but some Egyptologists would not agree with that. Who determined conclusively that it was the mummy of Ramesses I? If there is no source for this statement, it should go, lest we mislead our readers. --Ghirla -трёп- 20:01, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Curse...

Is King Ramses' Curse a real curse/plague? With the locusts, and the floods, and the...something else. I learned about all this in Courage the Cowardly Dog, so if someone could just reply...

I believe that was Ramesses II (The Great). --89.54.167.234 (talk) 21:23, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
