Question Question 5
How can we conclude that the Egyptians believed in life after death?
The Egyptians believed that after the death, the body and the soul live in a different way. That is why they preserved the bodies of their dead by embalming them. Such a preserved body is known as a mummy. The mummies were put in the wooden boxes, enclosed in a stone coffin and buried in tombs along with goods like clothes, food, drinks, jewellery, etc.
