wrap them in gawz <----- yes, this answer is true, however vague! The steps to embalming/mummifying are more extensive than just wrapping the mummy in gaws. First the priests would empty the corpse of blood and replace it with a mixture of salt and herbs, then ALL of the organs except the heart were removed, because it was believed that the only organ needed to travel to the afterlife was your heart! (The brain was removed by breaking the nose and using a hook- like tool to pull it out.) Next, if the corpse had wounds, they would be filled with embalming fluid along with the head. Finally the body would be wrapped in a fine cotton material/gaws and carefully put in the sarcophagus and brought to the tomb if the person had one. That is the whole mummifying process!
~Ancient Egyptians performed an experiment while embalming King Tut... they drilled into his head to remove the brain instead of pulling it out his nose!~
