Overview

The British Museum has the most Egyptian artifacts outside of Egypt. With that the artifacts also include 8 real mummies. The history of making mummies starts around 3500 B.C. Egyptians believed that death was not the end of their life but a transition from one state to another. So they believed the body had to be preserved in order to be recognized when the Egyptian eventually awoke from the tomb. The art of mummification was done in Egypt until 30 B.C.

Organize each section of this article so that it has a logical flow. If you intend to discuss one aspect of the origin of a person, place, thing, or idea, identify the appropriate existing section of the article, or create that section if it doesn't exist. Then, make a clear subheading. If you notice that some other information is not organized clearly, rearrange the information, but do so cautiously and responsibly! The goal here is clarity for the reader.

Add links to other articles, but do not link to personal student profile pages or milestone pages. Add media as needed in the appropriate sections.
