Inhoud:

This book is about snakebite and snake identification in ancient Egypt. The authors--in a remarkable collaboration between the fields of Egyptology, medicine, herpetology, biology and ecology--offer a new examination of the Brooklyn Medical Papyrus, better-known as the Snakebite Papyrus, the first-known treatise on snakebites from antiquity.
