Step one: Remove some of the pharaoh's internal organs and fill the body with sweet smelling spices.
Step two: Cover the body with a white powder called "natron," bags of which were also wrapped around the head. (Natron was a drying agent, rather like salt, and the body was left in it for several days, until all the moisture had been removed.)
Step three: Wash the embalmed and dried body -- now called a "mummy", treat it with perfumed oils, and wrap it in linen bandages. Place a mask over the face of the mummy and wrap it once more.
Step four: Burial

What part of the body is the centre for embalming circulation?
The circulatory system of the body, which includes the heart and blood vessels, is central to the embalming process. During embalming, embalming fluid is typically injected into the arterial system, which involves accessing and treating the major arteries, particularly the carotid arteries in the neck. The embalming fluid then circulates throughout the body, preserving and disinfecting tissues.
