Egyptian Doctor treating laborers on Papyrus

The original papyrus scroll. Most slaves were able to buy or work their way to freedom, and were usually well treated for illness, injury and other medical uses. The use of slaves depends on the owner if the owner abuses or treats them well.The original papyrus to what it really should have shown other than the warped picture.

 

This drawing of a tomb painting from Ankhmahor in Saqqarah, Egypt, later copy used on papyrus illustration of male workers in a genital cutting ceremony and treating the circumcision by doctors, to show a rite of passage to identity, gender, and power. Judaism took this painful rite of passage and placed it on the eighth day of an infant's life.
