NO, mummies are people that are are wrapped in some kind of tissue. mummies are believed to still be alive after they are dead.
Natural mummies in the desert are formed through a process called desiccation, where the hot, dry climate prevents decay. The arid conditions inhibit bacterial growth and the breakdown of organic material, allowing bodies to dry out rapidly. In addition, the lack of moisture helps preserve skin and other tissues, leading to the creation of mummies. This phenomenon is often observed in regions like the Atacama Desert in Chile and parts of Egypt.

Mummies didn't live anywhere. A mummy is what you get when you dry out and make a nice parcel out of a dead body. The place most associated with mummies is Egypt.
The climate which has very less density of moisture in air is dry climate.
In ancient Egypt they used natron to dry out the mummies. Natron was what they put on the mummies skin for 40 days so that the body wouldn't rot.
The climate on the ocean side of a mountain is typically cooler and moister due to the mountain blocking warm, dry air from reaching that side. This can result in more precipitation and lower temperatures compared to the other side of the mountain.
