what if I told you the first map of the
0:01
human brain wasn't sketched in a modern
0:03
lab but in the shadowed halls of ancient
0:06
Egypt picture this priests in linen
0:09
robes scribes etching secrets onto
0:12
papyrus by flickering torch light in a
0:15
world ruled by gods and pharaohs
0:17
Egyptian healers performed surgeries and
0:19
documented something astonishing the
0:21
brain its folds and even the clear fluid
0:24
we now call cerebrros spinal fluid these
0:28
ancient texts like the Edwin Smith
0:30
Papyrus described head injuries in
0:32
chilling detail noting changes in speech
0:35
movement and even personality but here's
0:38
the twist while Egyptians believe the
0:40
heart housed the soul their writings
0:43
hinted at a deeper understanding of the
0:44
mind's shadow could they have glimpsed

the link between consciousness and the
0:49
brain centuries before the rest of the
0:51
world imagine healers clad in gold and
0:54
linen debating whether the essence of a
0:57
person identity memory spirit was hidden
1:01
in those mysterious folds this ancient
1:03
knowledge challenges everything we
1:05
thought we knew about the origins of
1:06
neuroscience if you like what you have
