What Tools Did The Egyptians Use To Remove The Body Parts Of Mummies?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    I only remember one, that I learned back in high school, and only because it was so strange to me is why I remember, and that is, a very long slim spoon shaped tool, that they would put up the nose of the corpse, to dig out their brains, through the nose.  Sorry I don't remember any more than that.

      Well they used a hook in the nose and they sat them in Natron salt for a few days for a start then they used canopic jars for the 'good' organs.
