  • 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.

  • Systems of Classification in Premodern Medical Cultures; Sickness
    Systems of Classification in Premodern Medical Cultures Systems of Classification in Premodern Medical Cultures puts historical disease concepts in cross-cultural perspective, investigating perceptions, constructions and experiences of health and illness from antiquity to the seventeenth century. Focusing on the systematisation and classification of illness in its multiple forms, manifestations and causes, this volume examines case studies ranging from popular concepts of illness through to specialist discourses on it. Using philological, historical and anthropological approaches, the contributions cover perspectives across time from East Asian, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cultures, spanning ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece and Rome to Tibet and China. They aim to capture the multiplicity of disease concepts and medical traditions within specific societies, and to investigate the historical dynamics of stability and change linked to such concepts. Providing useful material for comparative research, the volume is a key resource for researchers studying the cultural conceptualisation of illness, including anthropologists, historians and classicists, among others. Ulrike Steinert is a postdoctoral researcher in the Research Training Group 1876 ‘Early Concepts of Humans and Nature’ at Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz, Germany. Her research and publications focus on the history of Mesopotamian medicine and culture, the Akkadian language, women’s health, gender and body concepts. She is the author of a study on the body, self and identity in Mesopotamian texts, entitled Aspekte des Menschseins im Alten Mesopotamien. Eine Studie zu Person und Identität im 2. und 1. Jt. v.

  • Re-Examining the Hebrew-Hyksos Connection
    Tommy Baas “For Every Shepherd is an Abomination unto the Egyptians”: Re-examining the Hebrew-Hyksos Connection Putting into historical perspective the major interactions between the Ancient Hebrews and their proverbial foils the Egyptians in Genesis and Exodus can be tricky. No dates nor names of pharaohs are ever given, and what Ancient Egyptian records we have can be rather obscure and mysterious. Revisiting Flavius Josephus’s claim that the Ancient Hebrews share a lineal heritage with the Semitic Hyksos kings who occupied Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period may give us a more nuanced perspective on the ancient world that might not answer all questions and put to rest all doubts, but it helps the biblical stories starring Abraham, Joseph, and Moses fall into a historical context that more or less aligns with Ancient Egyptian records. Even if it cannot be satisfactorily verified that the Hyksos and the Hebrews were one and the same people, as Josephus interprets the Egyptian priest Manetho’s version of history, it might make even more sense to consider that they were at the very least kindred allies of a shared Semitic heritage who interacted with and impacted each other’s histories at key moments in their respective plights. Close attention to small details in the Bible, supplementary Midrash, and what primary sources we have of Ancient Egyptian accounts from the time helps to draw a picture that only makes historical sense set before, during, and after the Hyksos Invasion of the 17th and 16th Centuries BC. This is more or less exactly where traditional biblical dating would place the stories of Abraham, Joseph, and Moses respectively anyway.

  • A Shabti of “Tjehebu the Great:” Tjainhebu (7Ay-N-Hbw) and Related Names from Middle Kingdom to Late Period
    A Shabti of “Tjehebu the Great:” Tjainhebu (7Ay-n-Hbw) and Related Names from Middle Kingdom to Late Period Lloyd D. Graham Section 1 of this paper describes a pottery shabti of the Third Intermediate Period and recounts the early stages of the project to understand the name of its owner. Sections 2- 7 describe the outcome of the analysis. This covers both the name itself (its variants, orthographies and possible meanings) and a survey of those individuals who bore it in ancient Egypt, ordered by time-period. 7-Hbw-aA seems to be a variant of the name 7A- n-Hb aA and to denote “Tjainhebu the Great;” 7A(y)-n-Hb.w may originally have meant something like “the man of the festivals.” The earliest known Tjainhebu dates to the Middle Kingdom and was probably called “the Great” to reflect his physical size. Precedents are discussed for the unusual orthography of the name on the shabti and its cognates. Some later names of similar form employ different types of h and therefore differ in meaning; for example, the name of Tjainehebu, Overseer of the King’s Ships in the 26th Dynasty, may have meant “Descendant of the ibis.” In the Late Period, both male and female forms of the name are known and seem to relate strongly to Lower Egypt: for men, to Memphis; for women, to Behbeit el-Hagar and Khemmis of the Delta. Faces can be put to two of the men, leading to a discussion of the verisimilitude of ancient Egyptian likenesses. Overall, the article presents an unpublished shabti with six known parallels that imply at least three moulds.
