Why did the ancient Egyptians mummify their dead?
Answer In order for the soul to refind the body
According to ancient Egyptian belief, while the soul did leave the body upon death, it would return. Once the body was buried, the soul would search for it, reunite, and that person would live forever. The body was preserved to keep it recognizable to the soul.
