The ancient Egyptians were the first people to perfect the art
of mummification. After 70 days of preparation, a mummy
was ready to enter the underworld, accompanied by the
magical amulets, possessions, and spells that would keep
him or her happy and safe in the afterlife.
Did the Egyptians really use onions to replace eyeballs?
Why were the internal organs removed from a body
before it was wrapped in linen? Find out everything you want
to know about mummies from wrappings to resin, from
natron to natural preservation.
