Meer over het boek

Ebers, a prominent German Egyptologist and novelist, is renowned for discovering the Ebers Papyrus, a pivotal ancient medical document. His academic journey included studying jurisprudence and Oriental languages, eventually leading to professorships in Egyptian language and antiquities at Jena and Leipzig. His notable contributions to Egyptology began with "Ägypten und die Bücher Moses," published in the late 1860s, and culminated in the editing of the Ebers Papyrus, which he uncovered during his scientific expeditions to Egypt.
