Well my social studies teacher told my this:
The substance Embalmers use to stuff the mummy's nose was beeswax. No kidding! Actual beeswax. If you want to know why they did it here's the answer:
The did it so the liquids from the head (from taking out the brain) wouldn't come out and make the body rot.
That's the answer!
Hopefully it helped you!
