The Egyptians would let the body sit for months, when the body was dried they would remove all of the organs with a metal hook, and pulled them out through the nose. Then in each individual wrap of linen they would place a charm or something that was important to the person, then the would put a mask on the face of the mummy and place it in a bone box and burrie it in a tomb.
Sorry, but I don't think we all know yet...
to extract , as in heating ore to remove iron
The nose fell off the Spinx, not the pyramid. Most believe it was due to wind erosion but no one is really sure why it fell off. In ancient Egypt it was a common practice to remove the nose from statues and drawings of a disgraced leader so maybe the early egyptians removed it because they were upset with whoever the Spinx statue was supposed to represent.
In ancient Egypt, the organs were removed from the body for the process of mummification. The beliefs of the ancient Egyptians were that the physical body went on a journey to the after life, and the internal organs were a hindrance to that journey.
Part of the embalming process, as practiced by the ancient Egyptians, was to remove the internal organs and place them in jars.
During the mummification process, ancient Egyptians made a small incision on the left side of the body to remove the internal organs, which were then preserved separately in canopic jars. The organs were carefully extracted to avoid damaging the body, as they believed that the organs were necessary for the afterlife.

first they took a dagger and cut the stomach open then they took out the organs by a crochet hook like thing but left the heart in then they burned a piece of metal then stuck it up your nostril then strangled your brain then they took it out your nostril and yes males and females it did stretch their nostrils
Most everything but the heart was taken out by skilled embalmers. A few organs were sealed into can-optic jars but the rest were fed to fido.
The Egyptians participated in the practice of preserving the dead also known as mummification which is where we get the word "mummy". They would remove the internal organs and preserve the body with bandages.
Priests plucked every hair on their body because they thought that their hair was unclean for the gods, they needed to be clean to be respectable for the them.
The paired organs which remove waste materials from the blood are called the kidneys.
