Extractions: Home Historical Articles : Diseases in Antiquity Trepanation of The Skull by The Medicine-men Of Primitive Cultures, With Particular Reference To Present-day Native East African Practice EDWARD L. MARGETTS INTRODUCTION T repanation of the skull is the most fascinating surgical operation in the history of medicine. Archaeological finds indicate that it is also the oldest therapeutic procedure of which we have objective evidence. The bibliography of trephining is vast, there are thousands of references, and much controversy as to motive and technique. The extensive literature deals mostly with "prehistoric" trepanation, particularly Neolithic European or pre-Columbian South American. But in actual fact, the operation has been practised almost everywhere in the world and at all periods, from the New Stone Age certainly and perhaps even from an earlier period in the evolution of man. The work "trepanation" is from the Greek trypanon, meaning "a borer," and dates from classical times. The more recent term "trephination" affords a variant, and is derived from the French. Essentially, both words mean the same, the making of a depression or perforation in the calvarium. Trepanation or trephination in the narrowest sense implies the boring of a hole through the intact skull of a living person. An extended meaning of this would include the making of a depression but not a hole in one or both tables of the cranium, or the removal of bone fragments already present from trauma or infection. The hole or depression is usually made by scraping (

Extractions: Uganda Facts and History. Extracts from the Library of congress site Location and Size Crops Land Use ... The Return of Military Rule: 1985 Location and Size Uganda is a landlocked country astride the equator, about 800 kilometers inland from the Indian Ocean (see fig. 1). It lies on the northwestern shores of Lake Victoria, extending from 1 south to 4 north latitude and 30 to 35 east longitude. Uganda is bordered by Tanzania and Rwanda to the south, Zaire to the west, Sudan to the north, and Kenya to the east. With a land surface of 241,139 square kilometers (roughly twice the size of the state of Pennsylvania), Uganda occupies most of the Lake Victoria Basin, which was formed by the geological shifts that created the Rift Valley during the Pleistocene era. The Sese Islands and other small islands in Lake Victoria also lie within Uganda's borders. Top of Page Top of Page Crops Land Use In the southern half of the country, rich soil and rainfall permit extensive agriculture, and in the drier and less fertile northern areas, pastoral economies are common. Approximately 21 percent of the land is cultivated and 45 percent is woodland and grassland, some of which has been cleared for roads, settlements, and farmland in the south. Approximately 13 percent of the land is set aside as national parks, forests, and game reserves. Swampland surrounding lakes in the southern and central regions supports abundant papyrus growth. The central region's woodlands and savanna give way to acacia and cactus growth in the north. Valuable seams of copper, cobalt, and other minerals have been revealed along geological fault lines in the southeast and southwest (see Mining , ch. 3). Volcanic foothills in the east contain phosphates and limestone.

Extractions: 1. Modalities of Innovation and Change Technology, in its broadest sense, includes all those artifacts and techniques that human beings use to adapt the natural environment to the needs of the species. Thus I have already discussed (in Chapter 2) the development of technologies In general, the movement of technological diffusion in the high middle ages followed a trajectory from China and India to the West, through the mediation of Persia, which was also a hearth of technological innovation. Sinologists, like Joseph Needham, tend to stress the consistency, longevity, and hence the slowness of this cultural flow. Islamists, like Juan Vernet, tend to stress the speed of diffusion. Both viewpoints are correct as generalizations. There tended to be substantial lags between the invention of a technique in China and its eventual arrival in the West; after the Arab conquests, however, Eastern techniques diffused much more rapidly once they gained the borders of the Islamic world. Thus the Chinese were more than one thousand years ahead of Europeans in the development of certain foundry techniques, or even simpler devices such as the wheelbarrow. Yet, the use of paper was diffused from Samarkand in the mid-eighth century to al-Andalus by mid-tenth, and "Arabic" (that is, Indian) numerals diffused throughout the Islamic world in the ninth century, in a matter of decades.
