Sety II (Sethos II) (about 1200/1199-1194/93 BC)

King of the Nineteenth Dynasty. There continues to be much debate over the exact sequence of events in the late Nineteenth Dynasty, after the reign of Merenptah: fragmentary or scattered manuscripts and inscriptions provide inconclusive evidence for the relations between Amenmesse, Sety II, queen Tawesret and Siptah.
