The complete history of the tomb's construction and employment is still uncertain. The body of the king may originally have been interred in the tomb of his wife, Taweseret and only afterwards transferred to KV15, which was hastily and incompletely finished. Only fragments of the lid of Seti II's sarcophagus remain in the tomb; the coffer is untraced, but was perhaps removed for reuse at the end of the New Kingdom. Later inspection of KV15 by those charged with dismantling the burials and stripping the bodies, evidently led to the removal of the king's mummy - which was found in the KV35 cache in a replacement coffin of later date.
