Medical experts have been relying on text-based medical knowledge for millennia, relying on longstanding experience and searching for insights on how to better examine, understand, and diagnose disease correctly, from minor rashes to rare maladies.
Originating in ancient Egypt, the nearly 4,000-year-old Kahun Medical Papyrus was written in hieroglyphics.
With advice on various gynecological issues, the text deals with specific problems, the related diagnoses, and recommended treatments.
Before the first ‘Kahun’, ancient medicine was taught and practiced orally, with no documentation. It signified a new era for medical knowledge. Years later, another revolution came along when medical texts could be printed, shared, and referenced. Today, when almost all references have moved to the digital space, we can browse over 30 million medical articles over the internet.
