Who mummified Anubis?
No one mummified Anubis. Anubis was the ancient Egyptian god of embalming because he had protected and wrapped the body of Osiris.
What were most people in ancient Egyptian society?
Muslims (Arabs)
Did the Egyptians only mummify certain people?
Anyone could be mummified, and mummification was desirable, since the Egyptians believed that the process allowed the soul to live on after death. However, it was expensive, so common people were rarely mummified. Pharaohs, government officials, and members of the nobility were often mummified, as were some animals (cats, birds, baboons, bulls, and other animals that held special religious significance in Ancient Egyptian society).
What did priests wear in Ancient Egypt when they mummified people?
They wore an Anubis face mask when they mummified people and animals.
Why was Cleopatra mummified?
Cleopatra's tomb has not been found. Therefore we don't know if she were mummified or not. However as she followed the Egyptian religion, there's a good possibility that she was actually mummified. We will not know for certain until her tomb is found.
