ref.: May 10, 2000, "Seti I & Horemheb"
The first picture is of some Egyptian officers at Saqqara from the tomb of Horemheb when he was still a general. The individual I believe is Seti is at the far left. He seems to be the most animated of the group and that perhaps indicates he is the youngest, gesticulating or waving at someone while his fellow officers stand soberly by. This is rather a small image and perhaps if you enlarge it in your viewing program, you can better see the details of the face of the handsome young man with his characteristic profile.
The next pciture is some officials from the Dahshur necropolis. This time I think Seti, with his very sharp, jutting nose is at the far right. Notice that he is wearing the identical, layered wig as in the first image. Also note that all the men in this group have diffferent wigs or hairstyles just as they do in the first image. Possibly, the same older gentleman that stands beside Seti in the first image stands beside him again in the second. They look rather alike. It is not clear whether the men are bowing slightly or pulling something along--perhaps even a group of captives. This time Seti appears more mature and staid.
The third picture is a sketch of the head of Seti I from the perspective of the photo on page 150 of John Romer's "Valley of the Kings". So this IS Seti I; to compare with the other two figures.
