Diorama of Egyptian mummification (part 4)

Part four of the diorama showing the Egyptian mummification process.

"Over two months have passed since the embalmers began their work.

The mummy is finally ready to go to the burial site with mourning relatives and the priests who will restore its human senses during the burial service.

Depending on the wealth and importance of the deceased, a huge entourage, including priests, paid mourners, and musicians and dancers, might accompany the mummy. Of course, not all burials were this fancy. With a simply mummification and burial service, even a poor person was assured eternal life."
