Mummy Tombs app for iPhone and iPad

In order for the soul, or spirit, to be preserved, a ceremony called mummification had to take place.

Mummification is the process of drying out a dead body to prevent it from rotting. To the Egyptians mummification provided a home for the spirit to live in the afterlife. The procedure was very costly, and so usually only royalty or the wealthy were mummified. People spent a lifetime saving up money to have a decent burial. Mummification was a slow process - it took almost 70 days to complete.

Many people want to know where the mummies of the pharaohs can be found.

To help you track them down, the Mummy Tombs collection presents a list of the pharaohs whose mummies have been located and identified. Please be aware that this is not a complete list of pharaohs because many of their mummies have not been discovered.

Pharaohs usually had (at least) three names: a Horus name (the royal name), a personal name, and later (after the Greeks came to call) a Greek name--so not every researcher uses the same name for a pharaoh.
