Question

The material used to plug the eye sockets in ancient egypt

Answer 1

Different materials were used to plug the eye sockets. The eyeballs were often pushed into eye socket and covered with linen pads. Sometimes eyes were painted onto the linen, but eventually the Egyptians began to use stone or glass eyes.  Sometimes mummies had whole onions for eyes and occasionally received onion skins to cover the eyes, but a more common method was to use dried grapes and beeswax. hope this helps!
