A mummy wrapping is a type of makeshift cloak. It may be dropped when you kill any kind of mummy. The main use of a mummy wrapping is to allow yourself to enter shops when you have the invisibility intrinsic (otherwise the shopkeeper will not let you in). Once inside the shop, you may remove the mummy wrapping, but you will need to wear it again in order to leave.

This is probably a reference to the film The Invisible Man, in which the (invisible) man wraps bandages around him to overcome his invisibility.
