The correct option is "they protected and provided for the ka in the afterlife".

The Egyptian Religion rotated around planning for life after death, some portion of that was sending along the things the perished would require, on account of the rich, similar to a Pharaoh, the things were given physically, on account of the less fortunate, symbolically. That is a colossal misrepresentation, obviously, yet a genuine comprehension of a culture that mind boggling is crafted by years, if not a lifetime.
