It comes from the Persian and Arabic words "mum" and "mumya," which describe wax or bitumen. Bitumen is this black substance that comes from the Mumya mountain in Persia.

Reckon the Egyptians...think Mummy comes from the German Mutti

mummification, I think
The English word mummy is derived from medieval Latin mumia, a borrowing of the medieval Arabic word mÅŦmiya (Ų ŲŲ ŲØ§ØĄ) and from a Persianword mÅŦm (wax), which meant an embalmed corpse, and as well as the bituminous embalming substance, and also meant "bitumen".
