first, the body was collected. then, a hook was inserted up the nose, and jabbed at the brain to break it out. After the brain was hooked out, a priest made an incision in the body, and reached in to take out the intestines and other organs. after 70 days packed in natron (a kind of dehydrating salt), the body was rubbed with oils and other stuff to make it soft. then it was wrapped with linen.
