The Process Of Mummification In Ancient Egypt

The Process Of Mummification In Ancient Egypt

Description and Definition: Back when the Egyptians ruled the world, they believed that mummifying the pharaohs (king) body would make the pharaoh live forever in the afterlife. It means a dead human or an animal whose organs have been preserved.

Process:
The first step is to push a sharp rod up the nose and into the brain. Subsequently, the brain is broken up into tiny pieces and removed through the nose. Next, they fill the nose with saw dust. Then, they make a hole in the body to remove all the organs except for the heart. Finally, the hole will be filled with linen and spices and the body was left under a salt to become dry. Later after 40 days, priests surrounded the body while it was being wrapped and spelled. After the mummifying process was complete, a mask was placed over the head so it can be known in the afterlife.

Conclusion:
It is not believed that any modern peoples are still using the full mummification process to protect the bodies of those they have lost.
