Best Answer

Funerals were held in ancient Egypt, the deceased body would first be embalmed by an embalmer who wears a mask of Anubis, the god of the dead and embalment. Hymns were spoken and incense was burned, after the body was mummified, it was placed in the coffin with the 'Book of the Dead', which would ensure the spirit would reach the next life. The more important people had larger funerals, such as Pharaohs, et cetera.
