According to the Egyptian belief system, death consisted of a process in which the soul detached itself from the body. With this, they believed that death would be a stage of change to another existence. Being the body understood as the abode of the soul, there was a great concern to preserve the body of the deceased. Thus, various mummification techniques have been developed that can preserve a corpse for years to come.

Mummification was carried out by a specific professional. After removing the viscera, the person's remains were rested in a mixture containing sodium carbonate and water. After immersion, various substances and herbs were introduced into the body to prevent tissue deterioration. In the final stage of the procedure, the deceased was bandaged and covered with a glue that prevented air contamination.
