The Egyptian civilisation was long before any of the neighbouring countries. Medicine and pharmacy in ancient Egypt were deeply rooted since mellenia of years. The ancient Egyptian medical papyri, discovered more than a century ago, proved that the Egyptians were the first to attain civilisation, which was copied and adopted by all the neighbouring countries and not the reverse as believed by the Europeans that the ancient Greece was the cradle of civilisation.
