Cancer is an ancient disease. Probably as long as there have been human beings there has been cancer.

The first recorded mention of breast cancer occured in Egypt in 1600 AD. A writing describes 8 cases of tumors or ulcers of the breast that were treated. The writing says about the disease, "There is no treatment."
