And now a little about Egyptian Herbals

"The first known Egyptian physician was Imhotep (2980-2900BC),a priest healer who also designed one of the earliest pyramids. He was greatly respected as a skilled and compassionate healer and was eventually deified. The Ebers papyri of 1550 BC list many herbal remedies and accompanying incantations, and around this time a form of astrology was incorporated into Egyptian physicians worked with around 900 herbs, and through their embalming skills, had a superior understanding of the human organism."
