Answer 2

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The Egyptians constituted an extremely religious society. This religiosity determined cultural and social practices among the Egyptians - one of them was the belief in immortality. For the Egyptians, death would be fleeting and life would return to the body, but the return to life would happen only if the body of the dying man was preserved.

For this reason, the body of Pharaohs and rich people went through a process of mummification, but not all Egyptians had the economic conditions to be mummified. Thus, poor people had to find other ways to preserve the bodies of their families.

The best option for these people was to be wrapped in linen and buried in the sand, because heat and lack of moisture prevented decomposition.
