They mummified dead bodies, because they believed the person's spirit (their "ka") would thus be preserved and able to enter the afterlife, at which time the person would be brought back to life and reside with the gods. In their tombs, Egyptians also preserved artifacts and objects they believed they would need in the afterlife, and the wealthiest Egyptians preserved items that would please or impress the gods.
