Had the Lehites possessed the knowledge of Egyptian enbalming techniques among their Egyptian learning (1 Ne. 1:2), they surely would have carried Ishmael's body into the promised land. For further discussion of cultural connections between Egypt and Judah, see Hugh W. Nibley, An Approach to the Book of Mormon, 3rd ed., vol. 6 in the Collected Works of Hugh Nibley (Salt Lake City: Deseret Book and F.A.R.M.S., 1988), 84-92.
