because egypt dicorved mummifaction.
Anubis
"Mummification" is not the name of any deity. Mummification (note the different spelling) is a word used for the process of making a once-living human or animal into a mummy and if you were in Egypt Anubis will tell you how in the book but you Will make the mummy yourself
Mummifaction occurs by two categories; accidentally (environmental), or purposefully (natrification). Accidentally has two fundamental environmental conditions; xerological (drying) i.e. arctic, elevated or acidic (peat bogs) Drying/xero environments have produced mummifaction in the arctic, Alps, high, dry deserts; Gobi, Atacama, et. al. Acidic peat bogs in the Americas, Europe, China Purposely, by natrification (adding salt) in Egypt, and briefly, Asia
first the organs were removed by priests. next, a special salt, natron, was then applied to the body and it was stored for a number of days to dry. after this, the body was filled with spices and purfumes,then stiched closed. finally, it was cleaned with oils and tightly wrapped with long strips of linen.
