The pharaohs would need these items on their journeys in the afterlife. It's a strange concept, but if you accept that the spirit of a dead person can live on after death, then you can also believe that the treasure that is buried or entombed with a dead person will contribute the spritual essence of treasure, to enrich that person's spirit. Egyptian Pharaohs thought that they could take it with them.

Some pyramids of Pharaohs were filled with treasures because they believed they would need them on their journey in the afterlife. The treasures were meant to ensure them a happy afterlife after judgment.
