Mummification in Ancient Egypt

  • 05 16, 2023


Такая наука оставалась одним из секретов фараонов Древнего Египта, и мы даже не знали о ней, кроме того, что рассказал греческий историк Геродот. Он записал некоторые методы мумификации во время своего визита в Египет в пятом веке до нашей эры, но с последними находками мы получили больше информации об этой науке, особенно когда американская миссия из Американского университета обнаружила кладбище № 63 в Долине царей, где находилось 8 гробов, включая остатки инструментов и материалов для процесса мумификации, который использовался для сохранения мумии золотого царя Тутанхамона, что открыло большую дверь для раскрытия его скрытых секретов. Сохранение тел от тления и разложения было одной из самых важных тайн древних египтян, которую они отчаянно хранили как секрет.

Посетите Долину царей во время однодневных экскурсий по Луксору или во время однодневных экскурсий по Каиру, если вы закажете экскурсию в Луксор с перелетом из Каира или экскурсию в Луксор на 2 дня из Каира.

На протяжении всей истории Египта египтяне всегда говорили, что дух, покинувший тело после смерти, вернется. И они не пользовались искусственными способами. Поэтому они довольствовались тем, что хоронили умерших в кратерах на песчаной земле пустыни, их заворачивали в несколько складок льна или кожи различных животных, или в несколько веток. Внутренняя кишка помогала спасти тело от порчи и разложения, как это видно на телах, обнаруженных и современных для периода между 8000 - 5000 гг. до н.э. Этот метод оставался естественной сохранностью тел неизменным до начала эпохи тех семей, где они были на украшении. Тела украшены цветными браслетами и завернуты в несколько последовательных складок тканого льна.

Вы можете увидеть несколько примеров мумий в зале мумий в Египетском музее в Каире, или две мумии на выставке в погребальной коллекции Юйя и Туйя на втором этаже, даже есть область, специализированная для мумий животных, так как древние египтяне оказывали некоторым животным особое уважение, а некоторые из них считались богами в Древнем Египте. Это возможно, если вы закажете один из однодневных туров в Египет, чтобы получить исключительный тур в Каир на полдня в Египетский музей, также наш транзитный тур в Каир включает в себя обзорные туры в Египетский музей, коптский и исламский Каир. И, конечно же, вы увидите артефакты в Египетском музее во многих наших туристических пакетах по Египту.

Egypt Tours FAQ

Read top Egypt tours FAQs

The mummification process of pharaohs in ancient Egypt was an elaborate and highly ritualistic procedure aimed at preserving the body for the afterlife. It was a crucial aspect of Egyptian religious beliefs and practices. The mummification of pharaohs involved several complex steps:

  1. Purification and washing: The process began with the purification of the body. The body was washed with water from the Nile River to cleanse it of impurities.
  2. Brain Removal: A hook-like instrument was used to remove the brain through the nostrils. The brain was considered unimportant in the afterlife, so its removal was part of the process.
  3. Internal Organs Removal: The abdomen was cut open, and the internal organs, including the liver, lungs, stomach, and intestines, were carefully removed. These organs were preserved separately in canopic jars. Each organ had a protective deity associated with it.
  • The liver was associated with Imsety (a human-headed deity).
  • The lungs were associated with Hapi (a baboon-headed deity).
  • The stomach was associated with Duamutef (a jackal-headed deity).
  • The intestines were associated with Qebehsenuef (a falcon-headed deity).
  1. Drying and dehydration: The body was packed with natron, a naturally occurring salt mixture found in the desert. Natron helped to dry out the body and prevent decay. The body was left to dry for about 40 days.
  2. Cleansing and Anointing: After the drying period, the body was washed again, and various oils and perfumes were applied to the skin to keep it supple and fragrant.
  3. Wrapping: The body was then carefully wrapped in linen bandages. Amulets and charms were placed between the layers of linen to provide protection and guidance in the afterlife. The wrappings were often elaborate, and the head and body were wrapped separately.
  4. Masks and Coffin: A death mask, typically made of cartonnage or gold, was placed over the wrapped head. The body, now fully wrapped, was placed in a wooden coffin or sarcophagus, which was often decorated with inscriptions and symbols.
  5. Final Rituals: The mummified body was usually placed in a tomb or burial chamber, along with various offerings and possessions to accompany the pharaoh in the afterlife. The tomb was sealed, and funerary rituals were performed to ensure a safe journey to the afterlife.
