Egyptian mythology: Encyclopedia II - Egyptian mythology - Death

Egypt was possibly the first civilization to have any belief in an afterlife, and probably the first to have a positive outlook on it. Beliefs about the soul and afterlife focused heavily on preservation of the body, or ba (The soul was known as the ka). This meant that embalming and mummification were practiced, in order to preserve the individual's identity in the afterlife. Originally the dead were buried in reed caskets in the searing hot sand, which caused the remains to dry quickly, preventing decomposition, and were subsequently burie ...
