heart attack
As it Helen* Yes, she died because of heart attack when she is peacefully sleeping.
ANSWER:It actually goes through more than that, but I believe you are asking why it goes to the heart twice before it gets sent to the rest of the body. The reason is the heart has no oxygen production capabilities. It therefore receives the unoxygenated blood from the body in the Superior vena cava and into the right atrium, from there it goes to the right ventricle where it is sent to the lungs to be oxgenated through the pulmonary artery. Oxygen is picked up by the blood cells in the lungs and returns back to the heart through the pulmonary vein into the left atrium. This is the second time it enters into the heart. From the left atrium it flows into the left ventricle and then exits into the aorta to the oxygenate the rest of the body.
The egyptians knew about the heart, liver, lungs and brain because they removed them when they embalmed people who had died, for what they belived afterlife

Pyramids are tombs , so the Egyptians would make them to bury there pharaohs in once they died....
First of all in Egypt the rulers were called Pharaohs not kings. The pyramids were built by the Pharaohs as tombs for when they died. Until the Pharaoh died the pyramid was essentially untouched after construction.
Most dead pharaohs were placed in tombs which were then sealed. There is very little evidence that they were buried in pyramids (which is a common miss-belief).
Ancient Egyptians viewed their pharaohs as living gods. They were the personification of AMUN-RA the king of gods, and when they died they became true gods. Therefore these pharaohs weren't only regarded as the kings of Egypt but as divinity. Egyptians believed that their pharaoh bore full responsibility for the kingdom's well-being, the sun to rise, the rivers to overflow, and the crops to grow. It was the pharaoh's duty to promote truth and justice. He was worshiped and appreciated.
they thought it meant life
The pharaohs died in 1336
A mummy was a person before it died. Although on rare occasions, other creatures were mummified by certain ancient cultures. The typical use of mummification was to preserve a body after the person had died. One culture that used this practice were the ancient Egyptians. Only rich or royal Egyptians such as the Pharaohs were mummified.
The Ancient Egyptians believed in the They called it the afterlife. They believed that it was like another life, the Pharaohs would have their servants, organs, food, valuables, pets, and , they thought that certain gods would assist them to their place in the afterlife.
They were buried in tombs with variables because Egyptians belived that after pharohs and Egyptians in the upper section of the social pyramid died, they would proceed into the underworld. If they were good, or worthy Egyptians, then they would have them selves and all their possecions such as jewlry and pets get wrapped into 'mummies' and proceed into the underworld.
Mummification is like the modern day practice of embalming. The Ancient Egyptians believed that when you died your soul was taken before Anubis the god of Embalming and your heart would then be weighed against the feather of Ma'at, the goddess of justice. If your heart was lighter than the feather your heart was sent back to your body and your soul would travel to heaven. If your heart was heavier than the feather it was devoured by the demon Ammit, the destroyer. Whilst it all the god Thoth recorded the events.
