The Mummification process focused on the religious aspect of Egypt.

The concept of death is highly regarded in ancient Egypt and for the pharaohs,

it’s viewed as a way to join the gods. The ancient Egyptians used the

mummification process to prepare their dead for the afterlife.

The process involved the use of special tools and techniques for

several days so all the moisture removed from the body leaving

only a dried corpse and special priests would treat and wrap the

body with a linen cloth and put within his or her grave with selected

artifacts and a copy of a book of the dead which held many

enchantments and protection spells. The mummies are hard

to decay and can be viewed in the Egyptian museum Mummy Room at any time.
