The history of medicine cannot begin without an archaeological survey of ancient health-seeking practices. We take the listeners on a whirlwind tour of the world, from Europe to North America and back to Asia, reviewing examples of medical practices and intentional caregiving practices in archaeological data. The episode discusses skeletal remains and examples of residue analysis, among other examples of archaeological remains that provide a glimpse into the ancient history of medicine in the world.
The series, 'Rooh', is the outcome of a Foundation Project within the purview of the Archives and Museums Program of the India Foundation for the Arts in collaboration with the S.L. Bhatia History of Medicine Museum, Library and Archives, Bangalore, to explore the many themes of the History of Medicine. Part funding was also provided by the Parijat Foundation.
