Mummification is the process of preserving a dead body. The ancient Egyptians wanted to maintain their bodies for all eternity, and that was why bodies were preserved in a life-like manner as much as possible. 
Watch the "Egypt Underworld" movie in the Afterlife Hall in the Antiquities Museum. The movie sheds light on the ancient Egyptian process of mummification and the preparation for the afterlife.
