Despite tha fact that Egyptian medicine was most advanced in ancient times remote ares were those parts of Egypt where shamanism as relic of pre-classic pagan religion remained (and we must remember that role of magic was core of every pagan religion) so in the less populous areas far from urban centers such kind of healers who were shamans which use some elements of physician methods, best example of nature of such medical practice is word 'pharmacy' which originated in ancient Egyptan word 'phar-maki' which means 'to protect' and was one of the god's Tot names
