How Did Ancient Humans Treat Disease?

How did ancient humans treat disease before modern medicine even existed? In this video, we explore the surprising and sometimes shocking ways our ancestors diagnosed and treated illness, injury, and infection thousands of years ago. We dig into real archaeological and historical evidence — from herbal remedies and early surgical tools to trepanation, ritual healing practices, and the first attempts at understanding the human body. You'll discover how ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and other early civilizations approached medicine, what they got surprisingly right, and what treatments were more dangerous than the disease itself. We also look at how disease and healing practices shaped early human societies, the role of shamans and healers, and how some ancient remedies actually laid the foundation for modern medicine.
