Were the ancient Egyptians addicted to Viagra?

In Manchester, England, scientists are performing a unique examination of an ancient Egyptian mummy. It is the mummy of a noblewoman and chantress from Luxor named Asru, and a new autopsy of her body reveals startling insights into the everyday lives of the ancient Egyptians. Until now, modern understanding of ancient Egypt has been based largely on paintings and engravings on tomb walls. But these depictions may have been far more idealized than realistic in portraying life in ancient Egypt. New evidence is indicating that disease may have plagued the ancient Egyptians. And, there is the suggestion of drug use, including the mysterious blue lotus - a plant central to ancient Egyptian culture. The prevalence of the blue lotus in depictions of Egyptian life has long defied explanation, but a new analysis of the plant has revealed that it may have had Viagra-like qualities - a theory that could explain its popularity and prominence on the tomb walls.
