Cool, step in the right direction.

sodium carbonate Na2CO3
Natron  Na2CO3

Closest thing to actual natron, from most sites I have poked through is that
a combination of kosher salt and baking soda approximates this, but then
they are mummifying apples, fish, chickens...  Oh it was a fun day of
reading.
Make glass, mummify your dad, or bake bread, so many choices!

Thank you,
