Video Overview
Script: What do ancient Egypt and modern medicine have in common? More than you might think. Over 3,000 years ago, Egyptian doctors were already performing surgeries and prescribing treatments we still use today. They even had a medical text called the Ebers Papyrus, detailing remedies and surgical procedures. Fast forward to now, and you'll find that some of these ancient techniques laid the groundwork for modern practices. Imagine the smell of frankincense filling the air as they used it for antiseptic purposes, a method still relevant in today’s hospitals. So next time you visit a doctor, remember you’re part of a tradition that’s thousands of years old, rooted in the sands of Egypt. Who knew that the past could be so present?
