القصة التى اخفتها اوروبا: كيف تحول أجدادنا إلى 'بودرة' في صيدليات لندن؟

Did you know that Egyptian antiquities were once used in European pharmacies? 🧐 In this new episode of "The Greats," we delve into one of the strangest documented historical facts about medieval and Renaissance Europe. We uncover "mummy powder" and how these once-great artifacts were transformed into medicinal remedies and artistic materials. Ahmed Esmat takes you on a research journey through ancient books and documents to explain: the history of using archaeological materials in ancient European folk medicine; how this trade impacted Egyptian heritage throughout the ages; the behind-the-scenes stories of "antiquities looting" that aren't told in school textbooks; and the historical shift in the world's view of mummies from "medicinal materials" to archaeological treasures that must be preserved. This educational documentary aims to highlight the protection of Egyptian heritage and deepen our understanding of our history.
