In ancient Egypt, the idea of ​​life after death was popular among the Egyptian people. Once in ancient times, the Pharaoh was the only one who could enjoy an afterlife, but by the end of the Old Kingdom, more and more people began to believe that they too could enjoy life after death. 'an easier life after death. Preparations for death were extremely important if one wanted to enjoy a happy afterlife; the Egyptians believed that only if certain burial practices were performed could they live an eternal life afterward. The process of mummification was one of the most important practices for accessing the afterlife; it was the Egyptian way of keeping the body preserved and ready for a new life. These processes are reflected in the myth of Osiris. Information about these funerary practices comes from tombs such as those found in the Valley of the Kings and that of Tutankhamun which constitutes a major source of funerary information. The ancient Egyptians have been said to be obsessed with the idea of ​​death; this is not necessarily true because they were preoccupied with the idea of ​​a new life rather than the end of their old life. It is a common mistake to believe that the ancient Egyptians were obsessed with death. The Egyptians saw life in everything and believed in a second life. Egyptians spent most of their lives preparing for death. So it’s easy to understand where this misconception comes from. The Egyptians believed in a better life and they believed they could achieve it by using their time to prepare for it. Brewer and Teeter (2007) note that "the Egyptians' solution to the frightening prospect of death was to transform the end of life into something understandable – death became a simple transition from the life they knew to the eternal existence in a real world..... . middle of paper......Dynasty 19). We can see from this information the lengths to which the Egyptians went to convince themselves that there was something to hope for after their hard lives of toil. There is reason to believe that this idea of ​​the Field of Reeds was created so that the Egyptians would have hope in a life so full of work and heartache. From the limited information we have about the afterlife in ancient Egypt, we can see that having an easier eternal afterlife was extremely important to the Egyptian people, and preparing for their transition from this life to another was the main goal of his life. They underwent the intense act of mummification in order to preserve and save the body for life after death. Looking at the evidence, we can conclude that they were not concerned about death, but about having an easier afterlife..
