Carlsberg papyrus
The Carlsberg papyrus is an ancient Egyptian medical papyrus written in hieratic. The recto concerns eye diseases and the verso deals with birth prognoses. The recto text dates to the 18th dynasty, while the verso was recorded several generations later. The papyrus is one of very few medical texts surviving from pharaonic Egypt.
The verso was published in 1939 by Erik Iversen. The recto remains unpublished.
