Snake healers. 12th-century manuscript page showing a scene described as depicting snake healers (snakes seen rising from the jar). The text above and below the artwork is in an Arabic script. This page is from 'The Book of Theriaca' (1199), an Arabic manuscript that is held in the Bibliotheque nationale de France (BnF). Theriaca is a Greek word meaning antidote or remedy. It is thought that the manuscript was produced by Islamic scholars working in either Baghdad or Mosul.
