No, they all died. Are you asking if the mummies are still intact? No, many were dismantled and shipped to various places as curiosities. Some were even sold as party gifts to be disassembled at the party. There was a mummy found in a pawn shop in Niagria Falls many years ago. The history lost by these actions is immense.

No, most mummies did not survive to this day. Mummification was a selective process reserved for individuals of high social status or of religious importance in ancient civilizations. Additionally, natural decay and the passage of time have resulted in the loss of many mummies. The mummies that have survived are typically those that were purposefully preserved or buried in specific environments conducive to preservation, such as the dry desert sands of Egypt.

How come mummies hardly decompose in so many years ecpecially the hair?
mummies ARE preserved bodies..they wouldn't be called mummies if they decompose..and as for the hair, it doesn't really decompose. It's not just mummies. If you dig a grave from hundreds of years ago, i bet you will still see their hair. And most Egyptian mummies are bald by the way..
