Breath of the Bog (aura, divine, enchantment, mental) 30 feet. A creature that begins its turn within the area feels as if its lungs were filling with water and must succeed at a DC 16 Fortitude save or be unable to speak or breathe. The creature can hold its breath and can attempt a new save at the end of its turn. A creature that succeeds is temporarily immune to breath of the bog for 24 hours.Rejuvenation (divine, necromancy) Unless the damage that destroys a bog mummy cultist is positive damage, necromantic energies rebuild its body from swamp muck 1 week later. If the uncompleted body is destroyed during that time, the process starts anew. Anyone who succeeds at a DC 17 Religion check to Recall Knowledge realizes that a consecrate ritual performed on the site that a bog mummy cultist was destroyed prevents its rejuvenation, the way positive damage prevents the rejuvenation from occurring.Rise Up [reaction] Trigger A creature walks on top of a bog mummy cultist that lies buried in the mud or peat below; Requirements Initiative has not yet been rolled; Effect The bog mummy automatically notices the creature and Burrows before rolling initiative.

Mummy

Source Bestiary pg. 240
While many cultures practice mummification of the dead for benign reasons, undead mummies are created through foul rituals, typically to provide eternally vigilant guardians.

Sidebar - Geb Mummification Practice

Neophytes to mummification typically apprentice to a morgue specializing in the process. Apprenticeships can last several years. Generally, the first mummies one produces are animals, usually of inferior quality. Those who become skilled remain rare enough to be a strategic resource and could be abducted, coerced, or bribed to change their allegiance or sabotage the mummification of their masters.
