Ancient Egyptians Attempted to Surgically Treat Brain Cancer, 4,000-Year-Old Skull Shows
May 29, 2024, 05:46 AM
A recent study has revealed that ancient Egyptians attempted to surgically treat brain cancer, as evidenced by a 4,000-year-old skull. This skull, which shows signs of brain cancer, offers extraordinary clues about early medical practices. Tiny etchings on the skull suggest that the ancient Egyptians may have been the first people to try to treat cancer. The findings, published by scientists, indicate that these early attempts at understanding and treating cancer date back more than 4,000 years.
