Mummy - Types of mummies

Mummy - Intentionally prepared ritualistic mummies. The best-known mummies are those that have been deliberately embalmed with the specific purpose of preservation, particularly those in ancient Egypt.

Mummy - Intentionally prepared ritualistic mummies

The best-known mummies are those that have been deliberately embalmed with the specific purpose of preservation, particularly those in ancient Egypt. Egyptian culture believed the body was home to a person's Ka which was essential in one's afterlife. In Egypt, the abdomens were opened and many organs were removed. The emptied body was then covered in natron, to speed up the process of dehydration, and to prevent decomposition.

In China, preserved corpses have been recovered from submerged cypress coffins packed with medicinal herbs.

Mummy - Naturally preserved mummies

Mummies formed as a result of naturally occurring environmental conditions, such as extreme cold (Ötzi the Iceman), acid (Tollund Man) or desiccating dryness have been found all over the world. Some of the best-preserved mummies formed under natural conditions date from the Inca period in Peru.
