There the embalmers, priests who treats dead bodies, wash the dead body with good-smelling palm wine and rinse it with water from the Nile. Then the body is taken to Per-Nefer or the “House of Mummification”. One of the embalmer makes a cut in the left side of the body and removes the internal organs.
