In the process of making a mummy, stones were thrown at the person who made the first cut on the body. When the body arrived one of the assistants made a cut on the left side of the abdomen so that the internal organs could be removed. It was thought to be bad to "hurt" a body like this, so the other assistants would throw stones at the one who made the cut. This was not supposed to hurt him, it was just part of the ceremony.
