Corpse Medicine: Eating Egyptian Mummies

  • A skull a day! People ate people in the name of medicine across Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries.

Maddy Pelling and Anthony Delaney visit the apothecary with guide Hannah Slajus, whose PhD was on human ingredients in medicinal remedies in seventeenth century.
