How did Egyptians dry out the bady?

Ancient Egyptians dried out the body during the mummification process primarily through a method called embalming. They removed internal organs, which were then preserved separately, and treated the body with natron, a natural salt that absorbs moisture. The body was then wrapped in linen and coated with resins to protect it further, ensuring it remained dry for the afterlife. This meticulous process reflected their beliefs in preserving the body for eternity.
