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.
