[snip] The so-called Nineteenth Dynasty will be found to have been displaced not only by the five hundred and forty years of error in the dating of the Eighteenth Dynasty, but also by an additional one hundred and seventy years—the duration of the Libyan and Ethiopian dominations over Egypt: and the total error will be found reaching the huge figure of seven hundred years.
Since the pharaohs of these dynasties waged wars and maintained peaceful relations with the kingdoms and peoples of the north, the transfer of these Egyptian dynasties to a time much more recent carries an enormous tide into the histories of the entire ancient East, including Asia Minor and Greece.

[snip] At some period of her career Twosre claimed the title of Pharaoh, not just royal wife or queen. All points to the time immediately following the assassination of her husband, Ramses Siptah. At the death of her husband she was pregnant and Bey, the Assyrian plenipotentiary, set to pronounce her issue as the occupant of the throne upon birth, would not leave the pharaoh's seat vacant in the interim. This Bey, who was not of Egyptian origin, but possibly "a Syrian by birth" let a tomb be excavated for himself in the Valley of the Kings; even though this tomb is not spectacular, still it was most inappropriate for anybody not of the royal house to be entombed in the Valley of the Kings. "It is a strange and unprecedented thing that three contemporaries should have possessed tombs in the Valley of the Tombs of the Kings," the other two being Sethos and his wife Twosre...
Sargon's ruling years are given as -722 to -705 when he was killed battling against the Cimmerians on his northern frontier, and his son Sennacherib grasped the scepter. During these seventeen years Ramses Siptah counted a year or so on the throne, Twosre less than a year, Merneptah Siptah six years. From then on the count of Sethos' years starts. He survived Sargon. Since his occupation of Thebes, the Assyrian influence in Egypt was quickly abating. Of Bey nothing is heard again, nor of any other Assyrian functionary. With the advent of Sethos, no longer an insurgent, but an occupant of the throne, Twosre being now his wife, of the boy pharaoh nothing is heard... But there are indications that the marriageable Twosre had some more romantic or tragic experiences in her matrimony. We shall retake the detection effort before long.

Amazing find.
They were in a desert.
They made buildings out of stone.
So why did it burn?
Very fascinating. The letters resemble various other very early ancient Hebrew scripts.
Thanx again SC
The fact that they were lost indicates we didn’t need them anyhow
I thought maybe they were directions to find the stairway to heaven.
Sculptures that were a gift from Egyptian Queen Twosret were also found at the site,
How do they know? Are they signed?
