| Antiqua Medicina - from Homer to Versalius | Antiqua Medicina is an exhibit created by the University of Virginia Health Sciences Center. This electronic display was generated from materials assembled for a print exhibit of the same name created in fall 1996. The exhibit is broken into 18 'rooms' that trace the history of medicine from Homer to Vasalius. Subjects including Hippocrates, Galen, military medicine and sanitation are covered; the essays provide an interesting introduction to the history of medicine. Scholars may also find some of the many images to be useful. |
