Mummification is a fascinating (and gross) ritual of the ancient Egyptians. Ancient Egypt wasn't the only civilization to mummify their dead, but the process in which they did it was very elaborate. Mummification was a very important aspect to their religion and belief of the afterlife. Without preserving the body, their soul would not be able to travel to the Afterlife and gain eternity. Where did these mummies go? In the pyramids. The pyramids were not worship centers or just cool monuments, they were tombs for the mummy and all the other items buried with it. In class, we talked about the steps of mummification but with this prezi, we are going to extend our mummification learning a little further by going in-depth. This mummification prezi will teach you about a few other details about mummification. All you have to do is tell me what you learned from it. The information contained in this prezi will be on the test.
Task: Go through the "Mummification In-Depth" Prezi and tell me three things that you learned.

They mummified, or preserved the body, of a person because they believed that to get to the afterlife the soul needed a body.

Natron Salt was used to soak up all the remaining moister. Anubis is the god of mummification, and the person who guides everyone through the processes of mummifying wears a jackal mask to look like him.
