Traditional Chinese medicine
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_Chinese_medicine

"During the golden age of his reign from 2698 to 2596 B.C, as a result
of a dialogue with his minister Ch'i Pai (  ), the Yellow Emperor
is supposed by Chinese tradition to have composed his Neijing Suwen
(     ) or Basic Questions of Internal Medicine, also known as
the Huangdi Neijing."

Ayurveda
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayurveda

"Ayurveda is said to have been first compiled as a text by Agnivesha,
in his book Agnivesh tantra, which was written during Vedic times."

Corporate society looks after everything.  All it asks of anyone, all it
has ever asked of anyone, is that they do not interfere with management
decisions.  -From “Rollerball”

    Perhaps there is something the Greeks did not give Egypt the credit for getting
them started. I have not looked into every area.
