Unroll the scroll, as the NLM says:

It’s a novel twist on NLM’s popular online system, Turning The Pages, which allows you to turn the pages of a rare book on your computer screen. Now, users can journey back to pre-book times and “unroll the scroll” or, more specifically, the Edwin Smith Papyrus, the world’s oldest known surgical document. The new offering is at http://archive.nlm.nih.gov/proj/ttp/flash/smith/smith.html.

Try it – it is very interesting, and make sure to read the translation and the comments. Also zoom in…
