Ancient Egyptians used a combination of natron, a naturally occurring salt, and various oils and resins to embalm their dead. Natron was primarily used to dehydrate the body and prevent decay, while oils and resins were applied to preserve the skin and provide a pleasant aroma. The embalming process often included the removal of internal organs, which were then preserved separately, usually in canopic jars. This meticulous process reflected their beliefs in the afterlife and the importance of preserving the body for eternity.
