Process of Mummification

First the Anubis will clean the body with a palm wine. Then he will cut the body open and take out the internal organs. The Anubis will then dry the internal organs out with natron salt. When the organs are dried, he puts them in canopic jars. Then they removed the brain by pulling it out through the bodies nose. After that they dried the insides with natron salt and sowed the body back up. Then they cleaned it in natron salt for 40 days. Then here came the wrapping. The Anubis wrapped the body from head to toe with linen. But the fingers and toes are wrapped separately. Then they read spells and words. They then put the body in a sarcophagus. Then their family members would bring food and things to drink if the soul was still alive.

Riddle of the Great Sphinx

Your fearful form is the work of the deathless gods. To spare the flat and fertile lands they placed you in your depression. A rocky island from which they banished the sand. They placed you as a neighbor to the pyramids...Who vigilantly watches the blessed Osiris.
