Omm Sety Lived a Life of Secrets and Far Memory

Pittsburgh, PA (January 2007) – People can’t seem to get enough of Tutankhamun, the great pharaohs, mummies and golden artifacts. Each time a world-renowned museum hosts an exhibit about ancient Egypt and her treasures we see record-setting attendance figures. Television specials and books on the same subjects continue to be popular.

In a groundbreaking new book, Omm Sety’s Egypt (St. Lynn’s Press, January 2007), by retired Egyptian businessman, Dr. Hanny el Zeini and California writer, Catherine Dees, the authors portray the intriguing, unconventional, outspoken Omm Sety (born Dorothy Eady), as one of the most adventuring Englishwoman of the 20th century – a bold explorer into the exotic realms of Egypt’s past and present. El Zeini and Dees pick up Omm Sety’s story where Jonathon Cott’s earlier book, The Search for Omm Sety left off.

The co-authors present new stories from Omm Sety’s long career with the Egyptian Antiquities Department where she worked under some of the greatest archeologists of her time. She was responsible for a number of significant finds during her life, given her uncanny gift for analysis and discovery. She was also aided by something, and someone, “extra” – and by her own vivid memories of a life in 19th Dynasty Egypt. “Omm Sety knew things she could not have known without some extraordinary extension of consciousness”, states Stephen Schwartz, the Director of Research at the Rhine Research Center and the author of Opening to the Infinite.

Omm Sety’s Egypt is a story of ancient love – of gods, pyramids, pharaohs and queens, and treasures that wait beneath the sand. It contains important revelations about Egypt’s lost history and presents never-before-seen entries from Omm Sety’s secret diaries and transcribed taped conversations with Dr. el Zeini prior to her death in 1981. From the rich archives of Omm Sety’s keen mind and intution, the authors also provide answers to these questions and many more:

  • Where is Nefertiti’s tomb?
  • Who were the first Egyptians?
  • Where is the tomb of Osiris?
  • Where is the great Hall of Records in Luxor?
