Natron is a salty chemical found near Cairo, Wadi-Natron, and south of Thebes. Egyptians used natron to embalm the body which took 70 days. Embalmers used natron to preserve the dead body and their organs. The bodies were placed in natron and embalmers packed the inside of the body with natron. This was to dry out the body and preserve it for the afterlife. Embalmers may have reused the natron. Ancient Egyptians had to preserve the body because they believed that if the body decayed the person's seven spirits would be lost forever and the spirit would never pass to the afterlife. Therefore, natron played an important role in the mummification process.

They are wrapped in linen; wrapped with over 40 yards of them. They dry out the body with a natural salt called natron, then they freaking take the guts out (they leave the heart in) and yank out the brain through the nostrils with a long hook, bit by bit. Then the embalmers flushed out the skull and as they waited for the water to drain, they sewed the holes back together. Next, the embalmers rubbed the body with spices and oils to restore the body's softness. Finally, they start wrapping. The wrapping can take as long as 40 days to finish wrapping.
