Mummifying was done with great care.
Magical words and charms were said over each body part as it was wrapped.
The purpose was to gaurantee whole body protection.
Protective Amulets were layered among the bandages.
The Mummy was then perfumed and the laying of precious stones followed.
The embalmer finished by anointing and wrapping the head.
The 36 substances used by the embalmer were placed in the dead body`s left hand.
A prayer was said and the body was sent to the coffin.
