THE BRAIN IN ANTIQUITY

I posted an article this week about a creature without a brain that thinks. Chaka Fattah's defeat and indictment in Philadelphia brought the brain back to the fore, when an article in "Science" lamented both given his support for neuroscience. Ancient Egyptian embalming did not think much of the brain, never preserving it in a canonic jar. But, liquefying and discarding it as nonessential. How vital is the brain to thought, really? http://www.neferchichi.com/mum2.html
