LIFE AFTER DEATH

Why Did Egyptians Make Mummies?

Ancient Egyptians believed that preserving the body was an important part of preparing for the afterlife. The body was carefully treated, wrapped and placed inside a tomb with objects intended to support the deceased in the next world.

Mummification developed over centuries and became one of the most recognizable traditions of ancient Egyptian civilization.
