We don't know. Mummification was practised in several cultures, of which Egypt is the best-known but certainly not the only one. The earliest ones - in South America, dating back to 6,000 BC - came about naturally because of the very dry and cold climate in which they were buried. We don't know any of their names. The oldest mummified Egyptian that we know by name was called Shemai, an Egyptian Governor. But his mummy is about 4,000 years younger than the oldest South american ones.
