How Cool is this!!!
The Ebers papyrus of 1550 B.C., one of the oldest and most important of the ancient Egyptian medical texts, refers to a book on the subject of muscles that would correspond perfectly to the twelve meridians of Chinese Medicine. In this picture, showing “Doctor’s Tools”, instruments of Traditional Chinese Medicine are clearly visible!
Thank you the.acu.guru for sharing this very cool piece of history.
