She went out and lived in the shade of Seti's temple.....in ?Abydos for at least 50 years. She was known colloquially as Umm Seti (= Mother of Seti)
She was still there when I visited in 1978 (!). And the beeb made a prog about her in around 1980 -called I think, Umm Seti or was it Priestess from the Past ?
She was OK apart from thinking that she was a priestess. I got into a bit of misunderstanding with my monuments pass - [which was not powerful enough because it wasnt signed by the then Min of Culture Victor Ghirgiz, but by an underling] and was told, Oh you should have said, aaiz ashuuf umm seti ! { I wanna see Um Seti! } and SHE would have sorted them out.....
