They thought when a person died, this one could wake up and do normal things as when he or she was alive. That's why theEgyptians put on their thumbs, food, clothes and precious objects. They think they need these things for the afterlife. ANSWER: Very few ancient Egyptians were actually mummified It was the usual custom of the royal families and the Nobel men. This being said, aside from these the rest were typically slaves. The mummification process involved the removal of the viscera (lungs, stomach, intestines, kidneys etc.) and the brain before being left in the a bath of alkali salts (natron) for 40 days leaving only the head free from the bath. The body was treated with resins and bound in linen. Several religious ceremonies were undertaken throughout the process. Finally the head is bound and the body is places into its coffin and sarcophagus. It was taken to the tomb where items for the afterlife were left including food, weapons, slaves, furniture wealth and ushabti dolls. Otherwise people were buried along with grave goods such as foodstuffs and weapons to aid their travels through the underworld. In the ancient Egyptian culture if a body was not whole at the time of interment it could not pass into paradise and was doomed to wander limbo for eternity.
