Hesy-ra (alt. Hesire, Hesira) was a doctor (perhaps the first in recorded history), the scribe who lived during the Third Dynasty of Egypt, served under Pharaoh Djoser, and was buried developed in a tomb in Saqqara. It was songs like "Leader of dentists and doctors" and "chief of the scribes of the king."



he wooden panels of Ra-Hesy are rare examples of hieroglyphics running high on the wood. The bas-relief panels are raised and have some of the oldest forms of the language of Egyptian hieroglyphs. The panels contain a hieroglyphic history, (top) and a thematic representation of Hesy-Ra in different poses.
