alive in the afterlife,because Ancient Egyptians beleived that they can be alive again if they keep their pharaoh body conserved very well after his death,
They beleived that he is half god, but after his death he will be unified with Osiris the God of the other life and can help all people to be alive again,
but to be unified with Osiris he has to keep his body conserved very well, that is why the Ancient Egyptian made mummies for their kings,and that is why
they were going to build pyramids & tombs to keep the pharaoh body in it. Unfortunately you will never ever see any mummies inside the pyramids, because
all of them were stolen.

The Valley of the Kings was chosen as the royal burial place for several reasons. The quality of its limestone bedrock
is generally good: solid, strong, and at least in some areas, relatively free of cracks and fractures. The valley was
convenient: a long wadi, along which a funeral procession could move, meanders from the northern end of the Theban Necropolis
westward to the Valley of the Kings; footpaths provided easy access over the hills to areas to the south and east. It was easily
protected: steep cliffs surround it and guard huts built above them provided 360 degree coverage. The large mountain at the
southernend of the Valley of the Kings, al-Qurn or “Horn,” looks from the valley—and only from the valley—rather like a pyramid
