The seven steps of ancient Egyptian mummification typically include the following: First, the body is washed and purified. Second, the internal organs are removed, with the heart often left in place, and preserved separately. Third, the body is packed and covered with natron to dry it out. Fourth, after 40 days, the body is washed again and wrapped in linen. Fifth, the body is coated with resin to seal it. Sixth, amulets and other items are placed among the wrappings for protection. Finally, the mummy is placed in a coffin or sarcophagus, ready for burial.
