The scribe did the rituals while the embalmers made the mummy.
How did amun ra become a god?
In the earliest period of Egyptian religion Anubis was clearly the lord of the dead and Osiris the embalmed god while Anubis performed the act of embalming. Titles that were invested unto Osiris -- such as Khenty-Imentiu or "Foremost of Westerners" -- were originally Anubis's. As the drama of Osiris's death and vindication unfolded over the centuries, Anubis assumed the role of the guide who holds steady the scales on which their hearts are measured against the feather of ma'at as "He Who Counts the Hearts".
Who wore a mask of Anubis while working?

Is the process of mummification also called embalming?
Mummification is the preservation of the soft tissue of a body by any means, natural or artificial. Embalming is the deliberate preservation of a body for any period of time. This includes what we commonly term "the process of mummification" in Ancient Egypt
What material do you think the pharaohs sandals were made out of?
Most ordinary people went barefoot in ancient Egypt; sandals were worn by priests and the aristocracy as well as by royalty, including the king. Sandals consisted of two parts: the sole, which could be of leather or woven papyrus or palm leaves, and the two straps (one across the instep and the other passing between the big toe and the other toes). The sandals of priests were always white, while sandals decorated with gold could only be worn by royalty.
