Scientists study 3,000-year-old prosthetic wooden toe
Switzerland-based scientists have re-examined a 3,000-year-old artificial wooden toe, most likely one of the oldest prosthetic devices, discovered in Egypt. The study showed it was refitted several times by a skilled artisan to the foot of its owner, a priest's daughter. Scientists are currently assessing the excavation area and surroundings to create a 3D map of the cemetery.
