LOL it was those dang thespians from the new Mog quests all along! Curses!

This.

Considering Hyur don't show up in Eorzea for another thousand years post-Amdapor's demise, I think you would have to have a whopper of an excuse as to why there's a Hyur sealed inside a 1600 year old Amdaporian tomb.
Considering the bloody race-wars which went on for about 500 years between Elezen and Hyur when Hyur eventually did migrate to Eorzea in the 6th Astral Era, I don't think its possible to say either that your Amdaporian Hyur was part of some lesser known sect of Hyur who migrated 1000 years early.
Your Amdaporian probably wouldn't even know what a Hyur was, much less seen one. Which could be something interesting to roleplay. Maybe as she's walking around she sees this strange race that has no baring in her own memories. Maybe she finds them beautiful. Maybe she wishes she was like them. Idk.
