The earliest known Egyptian mummies were actually created naturally because of the dry and arid climate of the desert. The earliest mummies that were intentionally created in regards to religious beliefs have been dated as far back as the 2nd dynasty, around 3400 BCE. Usually in Egyptian culture only the rich were able to afford to be mummified, this included Pharaohs, their queens, and high priests.
