Dr. Zahi Hawass, kakauolelo nui o ka Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA), i mai la i keia loaa i hanaia e ka mua loa Aigupita misionari e hana ana ma ke awawa o ka Moi, ma hope o ka 'monopolized' no nā kenekulia elua i hala e na mikanele haole. Ua ʻōlelo hou ʻo ia, ua loaʻa hou kekahi mau ipu pālolo me nā ʻāpana o nā kiʻi pena o ka hale kupapaʻu i hāʻule paha ma hope o ka loaʻa ʻana.
I ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i ka lua kupapaʻu, ua ʻike pū ka poʻe ʻeli o ʻAigupita i ka lōʻihi o ke alahele me ke ana ʻana he 136 mau mika - ʻaʻole 100 mika e like me ka mea i ʻike mua ʻia ʻo Giovanni Battista Belzoni ma kāna hōʻike.
Malia paha ʻo ka hale kupapaʻu kupanaha loa ma ke awāwa o nā aliʻi ma Luxor ʻo ia ka hale kupapaʻu o Seti I, kekahi o nā hale kupapaʻu kahiko o ʻAigupita i ka Dynasty XIX. ʻO ke keiki kāne a Ramese I, ʻo Seti ke poʻo o ka poʻe pana pua a ʻo ka vizier i ka noho aliʻi ʻana o kona makua kāne. Ua kipaku ʻo ia i ka Heta a lanakila hou iā Phenicia no ʻAigupita. Ua ʻike ʻia ka hale kupapaʻu ma ʻOkakopa 1817 e Belzoni nona ka inoa i pili i ka hale kupapaʻu no nā makahiki. Eia naʻe, ua hoʻokomo ʻo Belzoni i kāna mau kānaka ma ke ala hewa, e ʻeli hohonu ana ma kahi māwae 65 mika ma ka pā o waho. Ua hoʻonui wale ʻo ia i nā āpau e hōʻike i ka lumi i mālama ʻia ai nā mea hana kahiko, ʻaʻole ka mummy o Seti. ʻAʻohe o kāna mau ʻeli i ʻeli i ka sarcophagus i kona hoʻokō ʻana i ka ʻeli ʻana i ka hapalua o ke ala. Ua hōʻike hou nā hana hou i nā alaloa hou, nā ʻanuʻu hou, nā keʻena hou a me kahi hale kupapaʻu koe wale nō nā koena koʻikoʻi o ka pharaoh.
Ma kahi o 70 mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua ʻike ʻia ka mummy o Seti ma ka Deir El Bahari ma kahi pono o ka luakini o Queen Hatshepsut. Aia ma lalo o ka sarcophagus kahi hale kiʻi pohihihi i ʻeli ʻia e ka poʻe ʻeli ma kahi o 90 mau mika ma mua o ka haʻalele ʻana ma muli o ka nele o ka ea a me nā ʻano pōhaku palupalu. Ua wehe ʻia kahi 30 mau mika i ka makahiki 1950. Ua manaʻo nā kiaʻi o ke awāwa e holo ka tunnel ma ka lōʻihi o ka mauna a pau ma kahi kokoke i ka lae o Hatshepsut.
Ua haʻi ʻo Hawass eTurboNews ma ke awāwa o nā aliʻi ma kahi o 37 mau makahiki i hala aku nei, ua hālāwai ʻo ia me kekahi kanaka ʻōpio mai ka ʻohana ʻo Abdul Rasul o Luxor nāna i haʻi iā ia ua ʻike ʻo ia i nā mea huna o ke awāwa. "Ua lawe ke kanaka, aia ma kona mau makahiki he 70, i kahi ala huna a alakaʻi iaʻu i ka waha o kahi ala huna. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia inā e hele hou au i kēia ala i ka lua kupapaʻu o Seti, e iho ana ka tunnel i kahi 300 kapuaʻi kahi e ʻike ai ʻoe i ke keʻena lua me ka hale kupapaʻu o Seti, "wahi a Hawass.
"ʻAʻole au i manaʻoʻiʻo iā ia a hiki i kekahi mau mahina ma hope mai i koʻu komo ʻana i ke kumu me kahi kukui uila, kahi kaula a me kahi lāʻau mika. He pōʻino ke komo ʻana i loko o ke kumu no ka 216 kapuaʻi. Ma waho aʻe o ia mea ʻaʻole hiki iaʻu ke hele hou aku no ka mea ke keʻakeʻa nei ka ʻōpala i koʻu ala a hāʻule i luna o koʻu poʻo. Ma hope mai, komo hou ʻo Hawass a hoʻihoʻi hou i ka ʻāpana i kēlā me kēia ʻāpana. Ua hele hohonu ʻo ia i 300 kapuaʻi a Abdul Rasul i ʻōlelo ai.
Ua ʻike ʻia ʻo ka hale kupapaʻu ʻo Seti ʻo ia ka mea maikaʻi loa me nā kiʻi kiʻi kiʻi e uhi ana i kēlā me kēia ʻīniha square a me nā pika o nā paia āpau i hōʻike ʻia, nā kolamu, nā kaupaku, nā kiʻi pena a me nā kumu hoʻomaha.
ʻO ka hale kupapaʻu o Paraʻo, ʻo ia ka hale kupapaʻu i kipa nui ʻia ma ke awāwa, ua pani ʻia i ka lehulehu i kekahi manawa i ka makahiki 2005, no ka mālama ʻana mai nā pōʻino o ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻole. No ka hoʻomau i kāna papahana mālama a hoʻihoʻi, ua hoʻāʻo ka SCA e hōʻiliʻili i nā ʻāpana hoʻopuehu nui mai ka lua kupapaʻu e like me ka hiki, i hiki ke hoʻihoʻi ʻia i kahi kumu.
Ua kāhea ʻo Hawass i ke Kulanui o Tübingen ma Kelemānia e hāʻawi i kekahi mau ʻāpana. Ua alakaʻi ʻia e Kauka Christian Leitz, ua ʻae ke kulanui e hoʻi i ʻAigupita i ʻelima mau ʻāpana kōkua mai ka hale kupapaʻu aliʻi o ka pharaoh. Ua loaʻa ka manaʻo lokomaikaʻi a Tübingen me ka mahalo e ka SCA.
ʻO nā waiwai o Seti kekahi o nā ʻāpana nani loa i kāhiko mua ʻia i nā paia o kona lua kupapaʻu, i hao ʻia e nā ʻaihue i ke kenekulia i hala. ʻO ka poʻe huakaʻi hele mua i ʻAigupita, ua ʻoki ʻia nā ʻāpana makamae i waiho ʻia i loko o kekahi mau hōʻiliʻili pilikino a puni ka honua.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- Egyptian Culture Minister Farouk Hosni announced that a quartzite washabti figure and the cartouche of King Seti I, second king of the 19th Dynasty (1314-1304 BC), were found inside the corridor of the tomb of Seti I (KV 17) in the Valley of the Kings in Luxor's on the West Bank.
- Ua haʻi ʻo Hawass eTurboNews that in the Valley of the Kings some 37 years ago, he met a young man from Luxor's Abdul Rasul family who told him he knew about the secrets of the valley.
- To carry on with its conservation and restoration project, the SCA attempted to collect as many scattered pieces of relief from the tomb as it possibly can, so that they can be returned to the original location.
