Question

the ancient egyptians the mummies of their pharaohs in pyramids​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The ancient Egyptians kept the mummies of pharaohs in pyramids so as to protect them in their journey to the after life.

It was very important to ancient Egyptian religious beliefs that the human body was preserved. A method of artificial preservation, called mummification was developed by the ancient Egyptians. Mummification was a complicated and lengthy process which lasted up to 70 days.

The Egyptians believed that when they died, they would make a journey to another world where they would lead a new life. They would need all the things they had used when they were alive, so their families would put those things in their graves. Egyptians paid vast amounts of money to have their bodies properly preserved. Egyptians who were poor were buried in the sand whilst the rich ones were buried in a tomb.

So the pharaohs, who were rich, were buried in tombs.
