NARRATOR:
More than 5,000 years ago,

Egypt gave rise to
the world’s first great empire,

and in the 20th century,
a mysterious woman

named Omm Sety helped bring
ancient Egypt back to life.

LYNN PICKNETT:
Omm Sety was one of
the most remarkable women

of the 20th century--
possibly ever.

She moved modern archaeology
along enormously.

NARRATOR:
She claimed to be
the reincarnation

of a priestess.

ANDREW COLLINS: Omm Sety
had an incredible insight

into ancient Egypt in a way
which went beyond the norm.

NARRATOR: And she
astonished archaeologists

with her incredible knowledge.

KATHLEEN McGOWAN: They’re
fond of saying in Abydos

that Omm Sety was never wrong.

And she was not.

NARRATOR:
But was Omm Sety being directed

by some unseen force?

Perhaps one
of otherworldly origin?

GIORGIO A. TSOUKALOS:
She truly believed that
she was bringing back

the old age of the gods.

NARRATOR:
There is a doorway
in the universe.

Beyond it is
the promise of truth.

It demands
we question everything

we have ever been taught.

The evidence is all around us.

The future is
right before our eyes.

We are not alone.

We have never been alone.

NARRATOR:
Egypt’s Ministry of Tourism
and Antiquities

stages "The Pharaohs’
Golden Parade,"

a glittering celebration
honoring

the nation’s ancient rulers.

The Pharaohs’ Golden Parade
was a major spectacle.

Mummies of ancient Egypt’s
greatest pharaohs,

22 of them,

paraded through the capital.

All of Egypt is watching.

The world’s watching,
and there’s just

tremendous excitement.

JONATHAN YOUNG:
The bodies were paraded

through the majestic boulevards
of Cairo

to a new home, a new palace,
a new museum.

Nothing like this had happened
since the days of Cleopatra,

and the glory of ancient Egypt
was rediscovered by the world.

NARRATOR:
The Pharaohs’ Golden Parade

was intended to revitalize
Egypt’s tourism industry.

And the three-mile procession
from the old Egyptian Museum

in Tahrir Square
to the new National Museum

seemed to bring a
long-forgotten age back to life.

In the Western world,
in the 21st century,

people are hungry for

connecting with something
truly ancient and very powerful.

That’s ancient Egypt.

And what we’re starting to see
is a tremendous resurgence

and interest in the Egyptian
mysteries and the gods.

NARRATOR:
Considered by most historians
to be the world’s

first great empire,

ancient Egypt is of
enormous significance to

the ancient astronaut theory.

It was a place
of colossal structures,

technologies so advanced
that they continue to astonish,

and a pantheon of gods said to
have come from the stars.

In ancient Egypt,
one of the origin stories says

that a long time ago

a pyramid-shaped stone
descended from the sky.

Out of which
the first creator gods

emerged and started
Egyptian civilization.

In fact,
they referred to a golden age

when the gods still mingled
with human beings.

In ancient Egypt,
it’s chock-full

of references of celestial
beings descending from the sky

and imparting knowledge
to our ancestors.

♪ ♪

NARRATOR:
Egyptian civilization arose
in North Africa

around 3100 BC,

and thrived for 3,000 years,

before being conquered
by the Roman Empire.

Over the centuries,
many of its monuments--

celebrating the gods
and pharaohs--

were literally overcome
by the sands of time.

But Egypt came roaring back
to the world’s attention

in the 20th century,
thanks in large part

to the contributions of one
of the most extraordinary

and unlikely Egyptologists
who ever lived--

Dorothy Eady,
more commonly known as Omm Sety.

COLLINS:
Omm Sety had

an incredible insight
into ancient Egypt in a way

which went beyond the norm.

TSOUKALOS: She wrote books,
she wrote articles.

She was one of the most

accomplished Egyptologists
the world has ever known.

And she had no formal training.

Personally,
I think Omm Sety was one of

the most remarkable women
of the 20th century--

possibly ever.

NARRATOR:
Omm Sety astounded
Egyptologists with her

ability to accurately
predict the location

of lost ruins and artifacts--
seemingly out of the blue.

Her incredible story includes
revelations from a past life,

communicating with
ancient pharaohs and gods,

and ultimately,
recovering critical pieces

of Egypt’s lost history.

There are many who believe
the life of Omm Sety

was guided by a higher power--

especially when considering
it began with a miracle.

Three-year-old Dorothy Eady

is playing in her family home

when she takes a terrible
fall down the stairs.

When the doctor comes
to examine her,

she is completely nonresponsive,

and he soon pronounces her dead.

But when the doctor returns
to collect her body,

he is shocked at what he sees.

McGOWAN:
When he comes back

to prepare the body,

little Dorothy is sitting up,
and playing,

and eating candy.

The doctor was certain that
little Dorothy had been dead,

but here she was, and she was
awake, and she was great.

NARRATOR:
But while she suffered no
lasting injuries from the fall,

Dorothy Eady’s personality
had changed in a way

that deeply disturbed
her parents.

PICKNETT:
She was like a different girl.

And she started talking about

going home, "I want to go home."

And her parents,
of course, said,

"But you are home, darling."

You know, she said,
"No, I want to go home!

Not here-- home!"

NARRATOR: The following year,
a family trip

to the British Museum in London
gave her parents

more cause for concern.

Everything was going normally
until they got to the area

of the Egyptian rooms.

And this little girl
ran up to the statues

and kissed the feet

and was just
out of her mind with joy.

NARRATOR:
Not long after,
Dorothy began having

recurring visions of a place
that would dominate her life

for the next 60 years--
the Temple of Seti

in the small
Egyptian town of Abydos.

DEES:
Her father brings home
an exploration magazine

and it has photographs
of the ruins

of the Temple of Seti in Abydos.

And she sees it
all ruined with sand

and the roof caved in,

and she starts to cry.

Because that’s her place

and something terrible
has happened to it.

Here’s this little girl saying,
"Not only did I live there,

"but it looked
completely different

when I lived there
thousands of years ago."

NARRATOR:
Did Dorothy Eady simply have

an extraordinary imagination?

Or is it possible--
as many researchers suspect--

that when she hit her head
falling down the stairs

it awakened a memory
of a past life?

SPRAGUE:
There have actually been
many documented cases

where someone who has suffered

a brain injury or head trauma
suddenly has something unlocked

within them and now they can

play an instrument
that they never learned

or speak a language that
they’d never spoken before,

or have some sort of skill that
seemingly came out of nowhere.

It is possible that
because of the fall

that Dorothy endured
that this is what happened.

She had something unlocked
in her brain and all of a sudden

she can actually tap into
a past life experience.

NARRATOR:
Reincarnation is defined
as the rebirth of a soul

into a new body,
and from an early age,

Dorothy Eady sensed she had
lived a past life in Abydos.

While many in the West view
reincarnation with skepticism,

numerous cultures,
both past and present,

consider it an integral
part of their belief system--

and ancient Egypt
was no exception.

In ancient Egyptian religion
there was a great emphasis

on the next life, the afterlife.

The ancient Egyptians did
believe in reincarnation,

that the soul
appeared many times.

NARRATOR: Omm Sety was famous
for accessing memories

from a past life,
but she herself claimed

that much of her knowledge
was given to her by figures

she encountered in the night.

Figures that came to her
from the distant past--

and some that came
from the stars.

NARRATOR:
At the British Museum,
ten-year-old Dorothy Eady

is exploring the
Egyptian galleries

when she catches the eye of one
of the world’s most prominent

Egyptologists--
Sir Ernest Wallis Budge.

TSOUKALOS:
Wallace Budge

took her under his wing.

And at the time, he was it, man.

You couldn’t get any higher.

And, all of a sudden, this guy

is interested in a ten-year-old?

Well, there had to
be something there

that was
absolutely extraordinary.

PICKNETT:
This tiny child
just knew everything.

She took to Egyptian
hieroglyphics

very readily.

Um, and sort of almost
paranormally swiftly.

NARRATOR:
With over 1,000
distinct characters,

hieroglyphic writing takes
modern scholars years to master.

Did Dorothy Eady simply have
an unusual aptitude

for mastering a
complicated writing system?

Or is there another explanation?

Years later, Dorothy would
answer that question herself.

At the age of 27,
Dorothy Eady takes a job

with a political journal
advocating for

greater Egyptian independence
from Great Britain.

The British had had

control over Egypt
for quite a long time.

And there was a
semi-independence,

but-but still not independence.

So, Dorothy was
headlong into that.

RAMY ROMANY:
At that time, there was a
crazy Egyptian Egyptomania

presence around the world.

Dorothy was ahead of them.

She was already
obsessed with Egypt.

She started working
at an Egyptian

PR relations magazine in London.

And that’s when she met
Eman Abdel Meguid.

He was a student at the time.

DEES:
Eman was a young Egyptian man
studying to be a teacher.

And Eman fell head
over heels in love with this

energetic, passionate woman.

And when he had to
go back to Egypt,

he asked her to marry him--
and she did.

(ship horn blowing)

She just went to Cairo.

♪ ♪

NARRATOR:
Dorothy and Eman married
and moved in with

Eman’s parents in Cairo.

Not long after,
she gave birth to a baby boy

and named him Sety,

after the great pharaoh of
the 19th Dynasty, Seti I.

In accordance with
Egyptian tradition,

Dorothy changes her name
to reflect her status

as an Egyptian mother.

DEES:
Whoever your

firstborn child is you are
the mother of that child.

You are Omm, the mother,
and then the child’s name.

NARRATOR:
Dorothy Eady is now Omm Sety,

and she spends
every moment she can

exploring the archeological
wonders of ancient Egypt.

♪ ♪

She went all over.

She studied everywhere.

And she specifically went to
Giza Plateau a lot.

She is obsessed by
the Pyramid of Giza.

And she ended up meeting
Selim Hassan.

Selim is a huge person.

He’s the godfather
of Egyptology.

He liked her enthusiasm
about archaeology.

PICKNETT: He was terribly
impressed by her.

I mean, she was no
sort of mad flake.

She knew stuff.

She was very handy.

And also,
she offered her services

as a proofreader
of his writings,

and as a drafts woman
because she was very good

at drawing his finds.

NARRATOR:
Omm Sety became a pivotal
contributor to Hassan’s work,

sketching the illustrations of
his findings and helping to edit

his towering opus,

the ten-volume
Excavations at Giza.

To this day,
many Egyptologists consider it

to be the most important study
of the Giza Plateau,

which is the home of the
Great Pyramids and the Sphinx.

Ultimately, Omm Sety
became so consumed with studying

ancient Egypt that it left her
no room for her marriage.

DEES:
She sometimes would just
spend the night out

in one of the tombs

and she would bring her baby.

And of course,
her husband realized that

this just was a marriage
that could not work

and he didn’t want his child
brought up in that environment.

He asked for a divorce.
He got custody.

NARRATOR:
Around this same time,
in the early 1930s,

Omm Sety began to have
mysterious encounters at night,

awakening in what she described
as a trance-like state

to find a figure
in ancient Egyptian garb

standing before her.

This entity refers to
himself as Hor-Ra,

and he begins to
give her information,

and he tells her
to write it down.

She was writing it
in a type of cursive,

hieroglyphic script
known as demotic writing,

but in her daily living life,
she could not write demotic.

And this went on for
almost a year until she had

70-plus pages of information
in this demotic script.

♪ ♪

It wasn’t until she sat down

with a number of
demotic dictionaries

and went through
the manuscript page-by-page

and began to actually
translate it,

that she ultimately

came up with the story
that he was telling her.

NARRATOR: According to
Omm Sety’s writings,

Hor-Ra had related
the story of Omm Sety’s own

previous life in ancient Egypt

as a girl named Bentreshyt,
born in Abydos in 1300 BC.

Eventually, Bentreshyt became
a priestess of the goddess Isis,

and got involved in a secret
affair with the Pharaoh Seti I.

But who was this mysterious
messenger called Hor-Ra?

And what was his reason
for telling Omm Sety

the story of her past life?

What happened to Omm Sety
is actually extremely similar

to everything
we’ve learned about

close encounters with
extraterrestrial beings.

Some sort of message is
imparted to a human being

and then it’s up to them
how they interpret it

and use that information.

NARRATOR:
Is it possible that Hor-Ra
was an actual visitor

from another time--
or another world?

Soon after Omm Sety
learned about her past life

in ancient Abydos,

she had another
nocturnal visitation

and was transported
back in time to her home,

and to her former lover,
Pharaoh Seti I.

MASTERS:
Omm Sety describes
going to Abydos.

And she also claims to have
visited not just that place,

but the time that she claims

to have hailed from in 1300 BC.

Over 3,000 years ago.

It was very important
because it helped her

to provide information
to modern-day archaeologists

who are looking for things.

She knew they existed
before they were found.

HENRY:
The way Dorothy Eady
describes her interaction

sounds strikingly similar
to modern-era

alien abduction phenomenon.

She describes this
amorphous shimmering being

suddenly appearing before her

in a physical form

and then takes her

to an otherworldly realm

where she’s given
specific knowledge

and then is returned
to her room.

You have to wonder whether
she was perhaps actually taken

physically back in time

then brought back
to the present.

So, is it possible that
the strange entities

that were coming to her
were extraterrestrials?

NARRATOR:
In Cairo, Omm Sety
impressed Egyptologists

with her understanding
of hieroglyphs

and knowledge
of the ancient world.

But the astounding revelations

for which she would
become famous

had to do with the place
she claimed to be

her home in a past life,
the sacred city of Abydos.

And when she finally
returned there,

her insights
would prove critical

to reconstructing a temple that,

according to the
ancient Egyptians,

provided a direct connection
to the gods.

NARRATOR:
After 20 years in Cairo,

Omm Sety feels
an irresistible urge

to move to Abydos-- the place
she dreamt of as a child,

and which she believed
was her home in a former life.

300 miles south of Cairo,
this 5,000-year-old town

was once the chief pilgrimage
center of ancient Egypt.

People came to worship Osiris,
the god of the underworld,

who brought knowledge
to the people of the Nile.

YOUNG:
The faithful,

in a strong tradition may
have a pilgrimage site.

Abydos was that
for the ancient Egyptians

as Varanasi is for
the Hindu in India,

Jerusalem for the Jews,
Mecca for Islam.

These places change you.

NARRATOR:
According to
Egypt’s Pyramid Texts,

the gods Osiris and Isis
came to Earth

from their home in the stars
of Orion’s Belt.

Is it more than mere coincidence

that Omm Sety was drawn
to Abydos--

the place where Egypt’s most
important gods were worshipped?

Could it be that she was led to
this location because it served

an important purpose
for otherworldly visitors?

CHILDRESS:
When you look back at
ancient Egyptian history

and the various stories
that the gods came down

to educate the Egyptians

who have power and very
high-tech means to do things,

including building the pyramids
and raising obelisks,

moving stones that weigh
hundreds of tons.

It would seem like
they’re extraterrestrials.

And so, that Omm Sety was
living in Abydos is significant.

NARRATOR:
With decades of experience
assisting Egyptologists

in Cairo, 47-year-old Omm Sety

seeks out Edouard Ghazouli,

the man in charge of
excavating the ruins

of the Temple of Seti I,
which is in shambles.

Having heard of
Omm Sety’s uncanny knowledge,

Ghazouli devises a test,

asking her to find specific
locations and carvings within

the temple that he and his
team have just discovered.

-Long time, no see!
-Hello, Omm Sety.

-Don’t get up.
-How are you?

NARRATOR: Omm Sety herself
described this test

in a 1981 BBC documentary

called Omm Seti and Her Egypt.

They said that
they would test me.

The first time I went in,
they told me where to go.

It was the chapel of Amun.

So, I went right in,
and they told me to go

in front of the scene of
the sacred boats, which I did.

Called out.

They came, they found me

where I was supposed to be.

They said, "Ah,
that’s just chance."

I said, "Well, try again."

Well, they tried several times,

and each time,
I was in the right place.

It was as if I walked in...

into a place where I had lived
before and knew all about it.

INTERVIEWER:
Did you recognize anybody

from the reliefs?

SETY:
Oh, Seti!

The King Seti.
I had known him.

NARRATOR: The archaeologists
on-site were astounded

by Omm Sety’s
unexplainable knowledge.

But what left them
truly stunned was her revelation

of a temple garden
that no one knew existed.

CHILDRESS:
She asked them,

where is this garden that she
was very familiar with?

And the archeologists said,
"Well, there’s no garden here."

TSOUKALOS: And she said,
"It’s over there, just go dig."

And the head excavator says,

"We know for a fact there’s
no garden over there."

And she says, "Yes, yes,
there is, please just do it."

And they started digging,
and they found the garden.

So, it’s stuff like that--

just speaking right now,
I have goose bumps,

because stuff like that
shouldn’t happen.

NARRATOR:
Omm Sety remained at the temple
for the rest of her life,

helping to uncover
artifacts known to her

not only from
her past life memories,

but also from
the visitors she continued

to encounter in her dreams.

While these
dream-state encounters

were regarded with skepticism
in the 20th century,

in ancient Egypt,
they were not uncommon.

One of the key
aspects of Omm Sety’s story

is the dream conduit
that she opened up

to receive knowledge
and also to connect with

these otherworldly beings.

This is something
that’s very important

to the ancient Egyptians.

NARRATOR:
In the ancient world,
there was a religious practice

often referred to as
"incubation,"

which involved
sleeping in a sacred area

with the intention of
experiencing

a divinely inspired dream.

Stories of sleep incubation can
be found in the Hebrew Bible,

in ancient Greece,
and perhaps most commonly

in ancient Egypt.

HENRY:
There’s story after story
of people coming,

for example, to Saqqara,

which was a
dream incubation center.

People would come to Saqqara,
go into a dream,

and have an experience
with the god Ptah

or a healing entity,
and be cured of

whatever that malady was.

PICKNETT:
Going back to
Pharaoh Seti the first,

he depended upon dreams.

He had a dream that
informed him where to dig

to find the-- what was
already ancient Osirion.

So, it was not unknown
for the ancient Egyptians,

to use dreams
in a very practical way.

NARRATOR:
According to Omm Sety,

after she moved to Abydos,
Pharaoh Seti--

who had been visiting her
in the night--

began to appear to her
even when she was not asleep

or in a meditative state.

CHILDRESS:
People would allegedly see

him in her room

as a physical person.

So, how could this be?

Is he an extraterrestrial

who is able to travel
through different dimensions

and to different times?

NARRATOR:
If the figure that
appeared to Omm Sety

as the Pharaoh Seti
was an extraterrestrial,

as ancient astronaut theorists
suggest, what was his agenda?

Perhaps further clues can
be found by taking a closer look

at the life of
this mysterious pharaoh.

NARRATOR:
Thebes, Egypt. 1290 BC.

The elderly
King Rameses I passes away

after a reign of just 16 months,

and his son Seti is announced
as the new pharaoh.

Egypt is in a period of chaos,

and Pharaoh Seti
believes the only way

to save it is to restore
the power of the old gods.

Pharaoh Seti is one of
the most important characters

in Egyptian history.

And one of Seti’s
most important objectives

as pharaoh was to
bring back the old gods,

to bring back
the power of the old gods,

the understanding of
the importance of Osiris.

One of the things
that he does as part of

that restoration of
the old ways

to the multiple gods
is go to Abydos,

builds the temple there with
lots of different side temples

that are there to worship these
different gods and goddesses.

NARRATOR:
In Abydos, Seti built
one of the most

magnificent temples
in all of Egypt,

containing seven chapels
dedicated to different gods.

But when Omm Sety arrived in
Abydos in 1951, the great temple

she claimed to have known in
her past life was all but gone.

HENRY:
There was around
2,500 pieces of the temple

scattered everywhere,

and Ghazouli and others
had no idea

how to fit these pieces
back together.

But Omm Sety, maintaining that
she had this past life memory,

could tell them, "Oh,
this piece would go here.

This piece would go there. I
remember it looking like this."

TSOUKALOS:
This was an incredibly
daunting task.

But she started each day

with unbridled passion
and enthusiasm.

And Abydos was reconstructed,

according to
Omm Sety’s instructions.

McGOWAN:
She solves the amazing
jigsaw puzzle,

putting together
these 2,500 pieces

and restoring the Temple of
Abydos in two and a half years,

which is absolutely impossible

without her extraordinary
understanding of the temple.

It would have taken
20 years for anybody else

to do the work that she did
in two and a half years.

NARRATOR:
According to Omm Sety,
restoring the temple at Abydos

was about much more than
just resurrecting the past.

To her closest friends,
she confided that

this ancient structure served
an extraordinary purpose.

Omm Sety would actually
state that

the Temple of Abydos served as
a star gate of sorts,

a place where you were able to

jump in and out of
time and space.

NARRATOR:
A star gate?

Could the Temple of Abydos
have acted as a portal

to other points in the universe?

According to
ancient astronaut theorists,

a feature inside the temple
supports this sensational claim.

They point to a bell-shaped
object painted on a chapel wall

that some refer to as
the Osiris Device.

HENRY:
When we look at this symbol
through modern eyes,

it’s highly technological.

To the eyes of
a physicist or an engineer,

it looks like a Tesla coil.

And you wonder,
what could an image

that resembles a Tesla coil

be doing on the walls of
a temple that’s 3,500 years old?

NARRATOR:
The Tesla coil was designed
in the late 1800s

by inventor Nikola Tesla

as a way to wirelessly
transmit electricity.

But ancient astronaut theorists
suggest there is a far more

advanced technology depicted on
the opposite wall of the chapel.

HENRY:
On the opposite wall,
we see the same device,

but now it’s attached to
what is called

the Neshmet Barge of Osiris,
his resurrection barge.

And what’s so amazing about
this barge is that its shape

is virtually identical
to the way modern science

portrays a wormhole or
an Einstein-Rosen bridge.

McGOWAN:
The power of Abydos
is something

that we’re still only
beginning to understand.

It’s such a profoundly
mysterious place.

NARRATOR:
Is it possible that

by reconstructing
the temple at Abydos,

Omm Sety was restoring
an ancient star gate?

And if so,
was she being directed

by otherworldly beings that
have the power to activate it?

By the 1970s,
Omm Sety had become famous

beyond the world of Egyptology.

She was toasted by
luminaries like Carl Sagan

and became the subject of
several books and documentaries.

SETY:
Om Seti means

"mother of Seti," because
I have a son named Seti,

hoping he’d turn out
like the king.

Of course, he didn’t.

NARRATOR:
In a 1981 BBC documentary,

76-year-old Omm Sety
visits the temple in Abydos

with British Egyptologist
Dr. Rosalie David.

Due to a hip injury,
she hasn’t been

inside the temple
in almost a year.

How do you feel,
now you’ve arrived back

-after so many months?
-Oh, I feel marvelous!

What are your feelings about it?

Indescribable.

NARRATOR:
The temple, which she was
integral in rebuilding,

honors not just one
Egyptian god, but seven--

and Omm Sety had
an incredible theory as to why

it was considered the most
sacred site in ancient Egypt.

People coming
from all over Egypt,

you see, would find
their local important god

-worshipped here.
-Yes.

SETY: It may be
that the gods themselves

were coming to Abydos
on pilgrimage to Osiris.

I was beginning to think

I’d never see it again
in this life.

-Yes.
-I’ll see it in the next one.

NARRATOR:
Could it be true that
this extraordinary woman

was connected to
the gods of ancient Egypt?

Gods that were perhaps
extraterrestrials?

As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,

the answer
is a resounding "yes,"

and they suggest the proof
may soon be found

by investigating

a prophecy she made
about the tomb

of King Tut.

NARRATOR: Over the course
of her lifetime, Omm Sety

made countless predictions
that were proven to be true.

But perhaps her most significant

was one that has yet
to be verified.

In 1970, she claimed that
Pharaoh Seti had given her

important information about
the location of

the lost mummy of
an 18th Dynasty queen

named Nefertiti.

ROMANY: Nefertiti’s Tomb
has become the new obsession

of the 21st century.

Everyone wants to
find Nefertiti’s Tomb.

Now here’s this truth:

in Amarna, in the city of ruins,

there is a tomb for
Nefertiti there.

But her mummy
was never found there.

NARRATOR:
As far as ancient astronaut
theorists are concerned,

recovering this mummy
could be the most significant

archaeological find
in human history--

because they believe Nefertiti

was very likely
not of this world.

Nefertiti’s parents are unknown.

On pictures,
she is shown with one of

these elongated heads.

Now we know
the old Egyptian gods,

they had
longer heads than we have.

And according to
the Pyramid Texts,

sometimes they left the Earth.

So Nefertiti’s parents
were maybe extraterrestrials.

NARRATOR:
This sensational claim
applies not only to Nefertiti,

but also to her husband,
the Pharaoh Akhenaten.

During his rule,
Akhenaten introduced

a new and controversial
monotheistic faith to Egypt,

where the worship of multiple
gods was replaced with reverence

to only one disk-shaped
sun god called Aten.

TSOUKALOS:
Akhenaten is worshipping
this sun disk up in the sky,

and he actually
communicates with it.

He said he spoke with
a disk and it also had wings.

So, the idea is that we have

a misunderstood technology here.

And Akhenaten, in the ancient
astronaut opinion, may have been

an extraterrestrial.

NARRATOR:
Some Egyptologists believe

that a mummy found
in a vandalized tomb in

the Valley of the Kings is
in fact Akhenaten,

while others say the remains of
the controversial pharaoh

are still missing.

But locating Nefertiti’s mummy

may be well within reach--

thanks to Omm Sety.

One amazing idea that Omm Sety
has left us,

that is still yet to be
fulfilled,

involves the tomb of
the Queen Nefertiti.

During a conversation
with Pharaoh Seti,

he told her that

Nefertiti’s tomb is
nearby Tutankhamun’s tomb,

in a place that no one
would think to look.

NARRATOR: Tutankhamun,
better known as King Tut,

was the son of Akhenaten
by another wife,

making Nefertiti his stepmother.

But when the tomb
of King Tut was discovered

roughly a century ago,

the entire area around
it was thoroughly excavated.

So, how could Nefertiti’s
mummy be somewhere nearby?

Over the past few years,
evidence has been found

from ground penetration radar

and other means of
the existence of a chamber

next to that
of Tutankhamun himself.

NARRATOR:
Incredibly, 35 years
after Omm Sety suggested

that the mummy of Nefertiti
was hidden near King Tut’s tomb,

evidence was
discovered that this tomb

may contain a secret chamber.

COLLINS:
In 2005, the British
Egyptologist Nicholas Reeves,

he noticed that there were

some cracks in the walls.

And on further examination,

he came to the conclusion
that these could possibly

be that of a doorway

into a separate chamber.

And since that time,
there has been radar

done inside the tomb
which definitely seems

to confirm that there
is some kind of chamber.

And is it possible, therefore,

that this could be
the tomb of Nefertiti?

NARRATOR:
Archeologists are still debating
how to enter the hidden chamber

without causing severe
damage to King Tut’s tomb.

Once they do, will they discover

that Omm Sety was correct?

And that her amazing life
didn’t just

connect us to ancient Egypt,

but to our ancestors
in the stars?

NEWMAN: Nefertiti’s tomb
is potentially very special,

because Nefertiti may have had

the secrets of the whole
Akhenaten lineage.

Did she have
an elongated skull herself?

I think finding her tomb

could answer a lot of unanswered
questions in ancient Egypt.

NARRATOR: Throughout her life,

Omm Sety made
numerous predictions

that years later
were proven to be true.

And according to
ancient astronaut theorists,

she may well have been
facilitating an alien agenda--

one whose purpose
is soon to be revealed.

NARRATOR: On April 21, 1981,

Dorothy Eady,

now famously known as Omm Sety,

dies in Abydos at the age of 77.

Of her many
contributions to Egyptology,

the reconstruction
of the Temple of Seti I

stands as her
greatest accomplishment,

attracting millions
of tourists every year.

NEWMAN:
Because of Omm Sety,
Abydos is one of the most

important places
in ancient Egypt.

The Seti temple is an
absolutely fascinating temple.

It’s got beautiful carvings and
pillars and wall inscriptions.

It has the famous
kings list on it,

which is really interesting,

because this really describes

kings going back
thousands of years.

NARRATOR: While many consider
the Temple of Seti in Abydos

to be the most
sacred site in Egypt,

for ancient astronaut theorists,

it may represent
something even more profound.

Could this
ancient structure have

once been capable of
opening a portal

to other parts of the universe,

as Omm Sety claimed?

And was her work
in Egypt the fulfillment

of an otherworldly agenda?

HENRY:
Omm Sety’s story has meaning

on many levels:
as a spiritual story,

as a reincarnation story,

as an archeological story.

But most importantly to me,
it says

that we can open portals

between our
earthly material world

and the immaterial realm
of the gods.

That’s the realm of
the extraterrestrials.

McGOWAN: There’s something so
special about Omm Sety because

she makes all of these ideas--
interdimensional realities,

time travel, connections
with otherworldly beings--

she makes all of these
things real.

Her predictions came true.

And Omm Sety really
influenced and inspired

generations of people

who wanted to get deeper into

an understanding of Egyptology.

DEES:
When it came to being a woman of

service to Egyptology,

she was all
seriousness and science.

But the esoteric part,

the parallel consciousness,
that was there, too.

And I have no way of proving

that she didn’t experience this

and there are so many
reasons to think she did.

TSOUKALOS:
Omm Sety is one of the most

enduring mysterious stories

in the history of humankind.

Because even the Egyptologists

say that she had something
that nobody else had.

So is it possible that
maybe she tuned into

a direct channel
of ancient Egypt?

I think the answer
to that is "yes."

NARRATOR: Some believe
that Omm Sety’s story

is not yet complete.

Is it possible that
her life’s work was to help

prepare for the return
of Egypt’s ancient gods?

Perhaps, like Dorothy Eady,
humankind is about to awaken

to an entirely new reality,

and find that the key to

unlocking our future
in the stars

can be found deep in our own
extraterrestrial past.
