[edit]

Where is the papyrus presently kept? ChandlerMinh (talk) 05:43, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Based on the reference from the Georg Ebers page, it is currently kept at the Leipzig University Library. Emanracing95 (talk) 00:34, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Leprosy

[edit]

Note that some less careful sources simply state that the papyrus discusses leprosy and its treatment under the name uchedu. Like with the Biblical tzaraath, it's actually unclear whether the text is describing leprosy, psoriasis, or some other skin condition. — LlywelynII 21:33, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
