because they wanted to help the pharoahs pass on into the after-life
They mummified Egyptian Pharoahs.
In ancient Egypt the Pharoahs were mummified, but along witrh them also his favourite slave was mummified, this ws done so the slave would serve him in the next world
the egyptians buried their dead under ground like we do but it was only a few pharoahs that were able to be mummified and put in pyramids. there was also the valley of the kings where many of the pharoahs of Egypt were buried.
the mummies were important because it let the egyptians believe that whom they mummified (often Pharoahs or other rulers) would be going to the after life

One of the places where a lot of the dead are buried are in the pyramids. This is the system the Egyptians used to bury their dead.
Ancient Egyptians mummified corpses to preserve the human remains. They believed that in the afterlife if their earthly remains were preserved for eternity, then their spirit would live on in the afterlife. They were buried with all their belongings because they believed they would need them in the afterlife.
pharoahs had to be born in the royal family and have royal blood
the Egyptian mummies were pharaohs aka kings. all of them were also males. ------------------------ LOL we in the world do you get your answers?? I've seen them all over and they are a bunch of b*LL. Egyptian mummies are Egyptian mummies. Not only pharoahs are mummified but even common people...and YES even FEMALES. Do think the egyptians would secure only the pharoah's passage to the after-life by mummifying his body?? of course almost everyone were mummified. It was in their culture to mummify the dead NOT male pharoahs (in case you did not know.. they were SOME FEMALE PHAROAHS as well)
Village of the Pharoahs was created in 1973.
We have found a mummified body in the desert.Because he was mummified, he was also rather well preserved.
The people that were mummified had their pets mummified, also.
