it was important because they wanted the bodies to be preserved well for the afterlife.it preserves the body for many years and would not decay in its tomb.

The Egyptians believed that in a pharaoh's afterlife, they would need their body to live in, just like when they were alive. If they didn't preserve the body, the spirit wouldn't be able to recognize it. If the ka (spirit) couldn't find its body, it would die. (Yes, they believed that you could die in your afterlife) Then, if they died, they wouldn't ever come back.

The ancient Egyptians believed in an afterlife, like most modern day religions. They embalmed their dead so that they were preserved for the afterlife and for judging to see if they had a righteous life. Many of the dead person's possessions were also buried with them, even their dogs!
