the religion of Egypt was that those who die and bring valueable things with them will get a better life in the other world so rich people used to ask that their bodies should be mummified and with their mummies really valueable things should be kept so that they could use it in the other world and obviously the pyramids were made in order to preserve the mummies and the valueable items.

∙ 12y agoThe ancient Egyptian mummies connected to the belief that the soul called the "Ba" would leave the body at death, but the bodies were preserved so that the Ba could find its way back. Mummies were wrapped with charms to protect the soul through its journey in the underworld. The organs preserved in the canopic jars were considered to be essential, however, the brain was unwanted and removed after death.
