The Opening of the Mouth ceremony is usually heard of on the discussion of mumification. Along with readings from the book of the dead the only thing that we know of dealing with cerimonies is the opening of the mouth ceremony. Also the removing of the four "necessary organs for the afterlife" were put in four canoptic jars which depewnding on how it is viewed can be considered a ceremony.
