The Sisters, Vol. 4

A prominent figure in Egyptology, Georg Moritz Ebers made significant contributions to the field, notably through his discovery of the Ebers Papyrus, one of the oldest medical documents. His academic journey included studying jurisprudence and Oriental languages, leading to professorships at Jena and Leipzig. Ebers conducted two scientific expeditions to Egypt, enriching his understanding of ancient cultures. His early work, "Ägypten und die Bücher Moses," and the edited translation of the medical papyrus reflect his dedication to uncovering Egypt's historical and medical knowledge.
