Appearance

The skin of the mummies had been set aside and all soft tissues and organs, including the brain had been removed. After the soft tissues had been removed, the bones were reinforced with sticks and the skin was stuffed with vegetable matter before being reassembled. It was then given a clay mask, but some mummies were completely covered in clay, wrapped in reed and left to dry out for 30 – 40 days.
