’Royal nomenclature in at Abydos’.

In royal nomenclature the sun and the duck hieroglyph generally precede or follow the name of the pharaoh, meaning “Son of Ra”. The glyphs in the lower part of the picture tell us that he was also “Lord of the crowns”.
These hieroglyphs can be found on the right-hand edge of north wall of the Nefertem-Ptah-Sokar Hall in the Seti I Temple at Abydos.
The Seti Temple at Abydos was begun by Seti I and completed by his son Ramses II in the 13th century BC
