Editing Kidney (section)

====Egyptian====
In [[ancient Egypt]], the kidneys, like the heart, were left inside the mummified bodies, unlike other organs which were removed. Comparing this to the biblical statements, and to drawings of human body with the heart and two kidneys portraying a set of scales for weighing justice, it seems that the Egyptian beliefs had also connected the kidneys with judgement and perhaps with moral decisions.<ref name="zzz">{{cite journal | vauthors = Salem ME, Eknoyan G | title = The kidney in ancient Egyptian medicine: where does it stand? | journal = American Journal of Nephrology | volume = 19 | issue = 2 | pages = 140–147 | year = 1999 | pmid = 10213808 | doi = 10.1159/000013440 | s2cid = 35305403 }}</ref>
