Answer 2

mostly desiccation, but the Egyptian priests that handled it had special rituals for each organ (e.g. the brain being just useless fat was sucked out the nose and discarded, most of the rest of the organs were removed wrapped in special linen bags with specific spices and reinserted.)

Answer 3

First they embalm the Pharaoh in oils and then they remove his or her organs (yuck) and put them in canopic jars. Then they put salt in the body and fill it with saw dust. Then they put on the cloths and mask with all their belongings inside the tomb.

Answer 4

Firstly, the would get the dead body and wash it with water or palm wine. They then used a long hook to pull out the brain through the left nostril and they then threw it out. Then they would cut the left side of the stomach and remove the liver, lungs, intestines and stomach. They don't remove the heart as the ancient Egyptians believed this contained the person's personality. They then covered the internal organs with natron to absorb all the moisture. They rubbed the dried organs with oils and resin and wrapped them in linen bandages. They place them into canopic jars. They then covered the body with natron for 40 days to dry. They then rubbed the dry skin with palm oil and ointments, pack the stomach cavity with perfumed linen and sew up the wound. They then placed a magic charm over the stomach and a scarab-bettle shaped charm over the heart. They then wrapped the body with linen bandages dipped in gum. They placed amulets such as ankhs in with the bandages. They then placed a mask made from linen and glued it over the persons head and shoulders. They the placed the body into a coffin. They then would alert the relatives that the body and canopic jars are ready for burial
