Coffins such as the sarcophagi used in ancient Egypt were were intended as vehicles to transport the deceased to the next world, and to protect it on its way.

Burying the deceased in a coffin avoids the "ich" factor when people think of a body being just put in the ground. There are also laws in some places that require that the body be in an enclosed box for burial as opposed to being put directly in the ground. The intention is to prevent a decaying body from leaking and spreading disease into the environment.
