Erman Papyrus information


The Erman Papyrus (P. Berlin 3027) is an ancient Egyptian medical papyrus.[1] Fifteen columns of the papyrus are preserved, nine on the recto and six on the verso.[2] The papyrus dates to around 1600 BC at the end of the Second Intermediate Period.[3]

The papyrus was given to the Egyptian Museum of Berlin in 1886, and was first published in 1901 by Adolf Erman.[1] It is mostly concerned with childbirth and the health of infants, containing two prescriptions for unknown childhood diseases and a number of magical incantations for childbirth and the protection of infants.[4]
