The skills of the ancient Egyptians in preserving bodies through mummification are well known, but their expertise in medical practices used to treat the living are less familiar. This work reassesses the evidence of the original Egyptian medical papryi and other sources of information such as skeletons and coffins, and incorporates insights of modern medicine and Egyptology, to present a study of everyday Egyptian medical practices.
