Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize for rediscovering artemisinin, a anti-malaria treatment, from a 1,600-year-old text and scientifically formalizing it.

The medical handbook that first describes the formula (including the fact that you need to use low-temperature water) was written in the year 340. That's not a typo.
