Just wanted to share this (http://www.kingtutshop.com/freeinfo/Medicine3.htm). Fascinating, really-- to think they had treatments that worked as well as anything modern medicine/pharma comes up with. Excerpt:
An inscription in the tomb of Ipujy, an architect of the 19th dynasty (1300 BC) shows the physician – or sunu – reducing a dislocated joint. The procedure is exactly similar to the modern “Kocher’s technique” orthopedics use today.
