What is “archivemount” package ?

The archivemount command mounts the file tree contained in the archive archivepath on the directory mountpoint. The archive’s contents can subsequently be accessed inside mountpoint as a file system. The umount command performs the corresponding unmount operation.

The umount command detaches the mentioned file system(s) from the file hierarchy. A file system is specified by giving the directory where it has been mounted. Giving the special device on which the file system lives may also work, but is obsolete, mainly because it will fail in case this device was mounted on more than one directory.
