  1. Here is a good site that gives you some information.  

    To answer your question properly though, you need to give us details on who you mean by "they"?  As in, the ancient Egyptians embalmed bodies to mummify them...  But when we keep bodies for scientific purposes we also "embalm" them, by fixing them in a fixative solution.

    The point I'm making is that, by definition, "embalming" is doing something to the body so that it won't decompose.  Depending on the time in history, the culture in question, and the purpose of the embalming, this might be done with herbs/spices, with modern chemicals, with or without removing certain body parts...


  2. My friend went to school for a couple of years to study this. Get a calendar from a college and apply if you really want to know. I think you're just being morbid and want to read stories like the one who wanted a detailed description of the worst beating people had ever given their child.
