Ancient Egyptians developed methods for preserving bodies after death by removing internal organs, drying the body with natron and tightly wrapping it in linen bandages. This mummification process allowed bodies to last for thousands of years, as evidenced by the well-preserved mummies that have been discovered in pyramids throughout Egypt. The dry environment and tight wrappings protected the bodies from decay and helped maintain their form.
