Embalming was important because the body had to be complete, by this, i mean that the ancient Egyptians wanted the bodies of their pharaohs to be well preserved. And as we can see today, their methods of embalming were very professional. The organs of the dead were removed and stored in a case, like a jar. The organs taken out included organs like the brain, intestines, stomach and others. Hope i helped. Have a nice day
