 * __My history of medicine timeline__** :

3000 B.C- 2000 B.C - Egyptian Empire Egyptians were in harm of diseases suck as malaria due to living so close to the Nile River, They were also in the path of harmful Animals such as crocodiles and Hippos. In ancient Egypt there were a lot of spine and back due to all the heavy lifting and construction work.

There were many physicians in egypt but some of which are: Imhotep and Herodotus, which were remembered even after their deaths. In ancient Egypt the physicians cold very from head and stomach injuries, to eye doctors or dentists. Wounds were treated with bandages of raw meat and swabs, pads and white linens were soaked in honey to prevent infections, while opium was used to relieve pain. The surgeons knew how to stitch wound, set broken bones and amputate diseased limbs. The picture shows ancient medical tools. 2500 B.C- 1500 B.C- Greek Empire.

The first known greek medical school opened in Cnidus in 700 B.C. Ancient greek medicine centered around the theory of humours. The most important greek physician was Hippocratic corpus or “the father of medicine”. Medical practice in Ancient Greece, like in egypt, Was based around religious beliefs. The cult of Asclepios grew in popularity and was a major provider of medical care. This cult developed old theories and introduced many treatments similar to modern “alternative medicine”.

1500 B.C- 900 A.D- Roman Empire. As the Roman Empire expanded into Greece many Greek doctors moved into Italy and Rome. Many of the doctors were prisoners in War and could be bought by Wealthy Roman families to work in a household, many of them became valuable additions to these households. Clean water and good fit was very important to the Romans, And young solider were moved around a lot because the Romans believed if they stayed in one area they could get the diseases that existed there before. Personal hygiene also was important to the romans day-to-day life, so their famous baths played a big part in this.

900 A.D - 1000 A.D- Middle Ages. Medicine practices in the Middle Ages, unlike medicine practices in egyptian, greek and roman times, did not thrive as much. During the Middle Ages in Britain anything linked to the romans was destroyed. Diagnoses during this time were also influenced by astrology:

<span style="display: block; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal 'Lucida Grande'; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">1000 A.D - 2000 A.D- Medical Renaissance. During the medical renaissance many new discoveries were made, which moved our scientific and medical understanding to a new level. During the renaissance the roman catholic church dictated the directions of the medical world due to superstition. Those who viewed differently then the views of the Roman Catholic Church were punished. Therefore, when the Roman Catholic Church stated that illnesses were punishments from God and that those who were ill were so because they were sinners, few argued otherwise. However later in the period of the medical renaissance people became more open to new ideas and such in the medical world. Due to this new openness there were more discussions and debates about different medical problems, there were usually good because new practices and theories were made.

<span style="display: block; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal 'Lucida Grande'; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">20th Century. In modern Day times medicine has many new advantages due to what we have learned over the 1000s of years medicine has advanced. During present day times we are more educated about medicine and we have many new machines and surgeries which bring us to more of an advantage at this present time. Although we are ahead in the wold of medicine are still many things we have yet to solve.
