Medical instruments.

Ancient Roman, 1st-3rd century AD.

Bronze.

6-17.5 cm height. 37 x 37 cm the frame.

PROVENANCE: Private collection, Berkshire, United Kingdom. 1970.

CONDITION: Good Condition. Intact.

DESCRIPTION:

In Ancient Rome, medical instruments were quite rudimentary by modern standards. Roman physicians used tools such as scalpels, forceps, specula, and a vice (for fractures). In addition, they practised techniques such as bloodletting and cauterisation to treat various ailments. Medical knowledge of the time was based on empirical observation and tradition, influenced by Greek medical schools.

Roman physicians believed in the theory of the four humours (blood, phlegm, yellow bile and black bile) and the importance of the balance between them to maintain health. Medical practices included treatments such as bloodletting, purgation, the use of medicinal herbs and bandages to treat wounds and fractures. In addition, techniques such as cauterisation and amputation were practised in extreme cases. Roman physicians also valued hygiene and diet as important elements in maintaining health.

Fast delivery, object fine. However, bad carrier: please never use again DHL express as they are "DHL slow": instead of coming to my address, they put it directly to a DHL Service Point/Locker.
