Best Answer

The Egyptian Religion revolved around preparation for the after life, part of that was sending along the things the deceased would need, in the case of the wealthy, like a Pharaoh, the things were given physically, in the case of the less well off, symbolically. That's a huge oversimplification, of course, but a true understanding of a culture that complex is the work of years, if not a lifetime.
