I believe they extracted most of the internal organs through surgery. They threw away all of them but the heart and a few others that they believed vital in the afterlife. They preserved the heart, etc. in jars of some kind of preserving liquid to be put in the tomb with the money. Then they dried the body and wrapped it in bandages soaked in the same preserving liquid (some form of formaldehyde, maybe?).
I think.
