How is the history of most early American people preserved?

in Egypt they would take all the organs out of the persons body. then the embalmers would put natron on the person to preserve the body. The embalmers would wrap the person with bandages and put them in their own coffin.


What would the egyptians do with the mummies body parts?

When mummifying a body, the Egyptians removed the brain to keep the body from decaying faster. The organs were eventually removed (with the exception of the heart) and stored in canopic jars, allowing the body to be more well-preserved as it rested. Occasionally embalmers would break the bone behind the nose, and break the brain into small pieces so it could be pulled out through the nasal passage. The embalmers would then fill the skull with thick plant-based resin or plant resin sawdust.


What does natron salt accomplish?

Natron is a salty chemical found near Cairo, Wadi-Natron, and south of Thebes. Egyptians used natron to embalm the body which took 70 days. Embalmers used natron to preserve the dead body and their organs. The bodies were placed in natron and embalmers packed the inside of the body with natron. This was to dry out the body and preserve it for the afterlife. Embalmers may have reused the natron. Ancient Egyptians had to preserve the body because they believed that if the body decayed the person's seven spirits would be lost forever and the spirit would never pass to the afterlife. Therefore, natron played an important role in the mummification process.


How was The body of the ancient Egyptians prepared?

Mummification was a common practice for the wealthy citizens in Ancient Egypt. Mummification involved two steps; embalming and wrapping. The embalmers would first wash the body with palm wine and rinse it with water from the Nile. Then the internal organs would be removed through a cut on the left side of the body. The brain was then removed as well with a long hook. The body was then covered and stuffed with natron to dry it. After forty days the body was washed again and rubbed with oils. The dried organs were then wrapped in linen and returned to the body. The body was also stuffed with sawdust and other materials. The last step was to wrap the entire body in fine strips of linen.


What are mummies wrapped in and how are they made?

They are wrapped in linen; wrapped with over 40 yards of them. They dry out the body with a natural salt called natron, then they freaking take the guts out (they leave the heart in) and yank out the brain through the nostrils with a long hook, bit by bit. Then the embalmers flushed out the skull and as they waited for the water to drain, they sewed the holes back together. Next, the embalmers rubbed the body with spices and oils to restore the body's softness. Finally, they start wrapping. The wrapping can take as long as 40 days to finish wrapping.

Do embalmers take out organs of the dead?

Embalmers do not remove the organs or viscera of the deceased. If an autopsy is performed, it is done by a forensic pathologist. The pathologist, also known as a coroner, will remove the viscera. The viscera is then weighed and measured before being returned to the deceased body. Once the human remains have been released to a funeral home, the embalmer treats the viscera with chemicals and then sutures the incision.
