Mummies were placed in pyramids because the ancient Egyptians believed these grand structures were ideal for protecting the bodies of their deceased pharaohs and helping them in the afterlife. The pyramids served as tombs, filled with treasures and items the pharaohs would need in their next life. The design of the pyramids also symbolized a stairway to the heavens, helping the pharaohs ascend to the gods. Overall, they were a way to honor and safeguard the dead.
