History of Brain surgery
Brain surgery dates back to the Neolithic (late Stone Age) period, which is thought to be one of the oldest practiced medical arts. Unearthed remains such as the trepanation knife shown on the right were of successful brain operations and were found at one of Europe's noted archaeological digs in France.
Ancient surgical instruments like this trepanation knife are frequently found in archeological sites throughout the world. One of the earliest instruments unearthed is dated from about 300 B.C. |
