In this video, Ancient Surgery, Repairing Wounds & Surviving Pain, Kevin Hicks paints a vivid picture of diverse methods of surgery as long as 6,000 years ago that aren't that different today. From the ancient wisdom of Sumeria to the care of Egyptian soldiers, we traverse the landscapes of ancient medicine, uncovering the innovative methods and remedies employed by these early cultures. Discover the treaties of Sushruta in ancient India, the approach to medicine in Greece, and the advanced medical practices of the Roman Empire.
