And He is
Ramesses I:
*His name Re mes sw ,means:,He
who was born by Ra,
*He came from a long line of soldiers whose homeland was in the Eastern Delta ,probably in the region of Qantir.
He rose to the rank of vizier under king Horemheb and founded the 19th Dynasty.
His adoption as heir by Horemheb is recorded in an inscription in the coffin which was made for him when he was still a vizier .*He ruled for less than two years .
His work activities
*At Karnak he began work on the
second pylon and Hypostyle Hall. Those monuments were completed by his
successors.
His most well-known monument is the small mortuary chapel erected for
him at Abydos by Sethi 1.
His tomb and burial
*The only decoration in his tomb in the Valley of the Kings is from the
Book of Gates and is modeled on that of Horemheb .
His mummy was later removed to the Royal Cachette but has not been
identified among the bodies from that find.
