Willem ten Rhijne (1647, Deventer — 1 June 1700, Batavia) was a Dutch doctor and botanist who was employed by the Dutch East India Company in 1673. In summer 1674 he was dispatched to the trading-post Dejima in Japan. While giving medical instructions and taking care of high-ranking Japanese patients ten Rhijne collected materials on Japanese medicine, especially on acupuncture and moxibustion. In autumn 1676 he returned to Batavia where he continued to serve as a physician. In 1683 he published a book entitled "Dissertatio de Arthritide: Mantissa Schematica: De Acupunctura: Et Orationes Tres". His treatise on the art of needling which he called ''acupunctura'' was the first Western detailed study on that matter. He also wrote ''An Account of the Cape of Good Hope and the Hottentotes'', which describes the lives of the Khoikhoi (then ''Hottentots'') during the early days of Dutch settlement in the Cape as well as a pioneering book on Leprosy in Asia (Dutch: Asiatise Melaatsheid) and a treatise on tea that was published by Jakob Breyne. ==Works== * Disputatio medica de dolore intestinorum a flatu () publicae medicorum disquisitioni subjicit Wilhelmus ten Rhyne () Præs.
