  • Practicing Medicine in Ancient Egypt
    Practicing Medicine in Ancient Egypt Michael R. Zimmerman March 28, 2017 Michael Zimmerman is Adjunct Professor of Biology at Villanova University, Lecturer in Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, and Visiting Professor at the University of Manchester (UK) KNH Centre for Biomedical Egyptology. et us start by imagining what Albert Einstein called a “thought experiment.” It is the year 5015 CE L and an excavation of an ancient hospital, ca. 2016 CE, uncovers an ancient book, written on paper rather than on the current electronic device. Although the book is in poor condition there is a partial hieroglyphic title, transcribed by an Egyptologist and a paleopathologist as Merck Manual. The book seems to be a compilation of disease descriptions and treatments by a long forgotten Dr. Merck. The diseases are difficult to decipher in an era when humans live to the age of 150 and die only when aged organs fail. It appears that the body could be attacked by minute parasitic organisms, visible only with an ancient tool called a “microscope.” Some cells appear to have taken on a life of their own, destroying the body by causing diseases known by a variety of poorly preserved terms such as “cancer” or “neoplasm.” The task of our future paleopathologist is analogous to that of the difficult undertaking of deciphering ancient Egyptian medical papyri. There are a number of surviving papyri, in various degrees of completeness, which have been studied by physicians and Egyptologists. They have done remarkably well, particularly in that the writing is mostly in the difficult hieratic rather than hieroglyphic text.

As wel-l as the usual funerary scenes and inscriptions, the chapel arso has an interesting, and for the Ramessideperiod unusual, series of reliefs depi-cting activities of daily life - ploughing and sowing, catching and drying fish, a fowl-yard scene, and a scene of rmiseba seated on a chair in his office with other scribes sitting on the froor in front of hin with their chests of papyrus rol,ls.

We investigate the surface distribution of the source regions of dust jets on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko as a function of time. Methods. The dust jet source regions were traced by the comprehensive imaging data set provided by the OSIRIS scientific camera. Results. We show in detail how the projected footpoints of the dust jets and hence the outgassing zone would move in consonance with the sunlit belt. Furthermore, a number of source regions characterized by repeated jet activity might be the result of local topographical variations or compositional heterogeneities. Conclusions.

  • Imhotep-The-Vizier-And-Physici
    IMHOTEP I. IMHOTEP AS A DEMIGOD IMHOTEP I The Vizier and Phvsician of KING ZOSER and afierwards THE EGYPTIAN GOD OF MEDICINE BY JAMIESON B. HURRY, M.A., M.D. OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS HUMPHREY MILFORD IN HONOUR OF IMHOTEP ' The first Figure of a Physician to stand out dearly from the Mists of Antiquity.'-SIR W. OSLER. THE PROLOGUE HIS Monograph is consecrated to the T memory of a distinguished magician-physi- cian and sage who first appears on the stage of Egyptian history in the reign of King Zoser of the IIIrd Dynasty, and reappears at intervals on that stage during a period of over three thousand years. His record therefore extends over a large part of the history of ancient Egypt. We shall attempt to trace the fortunes of Imhotep both during the period of his human activity and also during the subsequent periods when he was looked upon first as a demigod and finally as one of the full deities of Egypt. We shall also seek to analyse the forces which resulted in such an exceptional occurrence as the deification of an ordinary mortal, i. e. of one who had never been a king. The subject is one which will interest various groups of readers. In the first place it will appeal to the lover of archaeology who is fascinated by the early story of our race and by every detail which throws light on its evolution. There is a glamour in the study of the earliest pages of X THE PROLOGUE liberal scale, so that the reader may be fur- nished with the authority on which statements are founded.

  • Teachings of Wisdom Ana Monteiro-Ferreira Eastern
    TEACHINGS OF WISDOM ANA MONTEIRO-FERREIRA EASTERN MICHIGAN UNIVERSITY * GAUDIUM SCIENDI, Nº 11, Janeiro 2017 17 lmost every encyclopedia, dictionary, and philosophy textbook includes, among others, the following definitions of wisdom: knowledge or the A result of accumulated philosophic or scientific learning; insight or the ability to apprehend intrinsic qualities and relational dimensions; judgment or the art of making good decisions and the body of knowledge and principles that develop within a specified society or period. Wisdom is also referred to as the teachings of the ancient wise men1. We can find teachings of wisdom in every cultural-religious tradition, general and particular sets of instructions, cast in expressions of the highest moral standards, which are called virtues, intended to promote righteous character and behavior for good practices and a ethical happy life. Philosophy textbooks approach discussions on wisdom from the ancient Greco- Roman tradition, which is considered the philosophical model by default or from the Judeo-Christian religious perspective. Otherwise, it will be necessary to look for particular studies focusing on a specific tradition, religion, or philosophy. The oldest teachings of wisdom can be found in ancient Egyptian literature, starting with the Pyramid Texts, which contain foundational sources for the moral and social development of humankind: the concept and practice of Maat (Karenga, 2006, pp. 41-42). Although Greeks and Romans owe their scientific and philosophical development to the impressive body of knowledge produced by ancient Egyptians with whom their most notable scholars studied for decades (George James, 1954; Martin Bernal, 1987; Yosef Ben-Jochannan, 1991) consideration to ancient Egyptian teachings is barely visible in * Ana Monteiro-Ferreira is an Associate Professor in the Department of Africology & African American Studies at Eastern Michigan University (USA).
