ISBN 978-952-19-7020-7 play.google.com , books.google.com Prologue ProLOGUE CONTENT [i] Text [ii] Navigation [iii] Application [i] Text The present work is based on a medical hypothesis formulated by the author. According to this assumption, the protograph of the Book of Genesis was written in Egypt in the late 17th century BCE following the Minoan eruption, with the participation of an encyclopaedic physician. The formulated hypothesis undoubtedly requires comprehensive discussion by the interdisciplinary research community. The theoretical possibility of such a work appearing in the Nile Valley finds support in the history of writing. The earliest texts were compiled in the Tigris – Euphrates basin and Ancient Egypt. In th...

LCF in English Bibles

The primary source for translating the Bible into English is the Hebrew literary monument Torah. In its first part, the Book of Bereshit (32:33 ) , there is a mention of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), which in Hebrew is called « גיד » (gheed, gid) (1923, 2004PreussJ; 2019ArkhipovSV_SkvortsovDV; 2020ArkhipovSV_ProlyginaIV). Probably one of the earliest written translations of the Bible into Old English was made by Ælfric of Eynsham, who worked approximately between 955–1010 CE (1050Aelfric’s). In Aelfric's Anglo-Saxon Paraphrase, the Hebrew concept of « גיד » [gheed], that is, LCF, is mentioned twice in the 25th and 32nd verses of the XXXII Chapter of the Book of Genesis and is called «sine» ( Figure 1, 2 ). In Middle English, translators Nicholas of Hereford and John Wycliffe named LCF as «synwe», and in John Purvey's Bible edition - «senewe» (1850ForshallJ_MaddenF). In Bibles in Early Modern English, LCF is designated as «senow» and «senowe» (1530TyndaleW; 1535CoverdaleM; 1...

Eryops megacephalus

ERYOPS MEGACEPHALUS Eryops megacephalus Cope 1877 is an early tetrapod from the Permian (298 .9-251.9 Ma ), apparently showing strong similarities to salamanders (2022HerbstEC_HutchinsonJR; 2023CohenKM_C arN). Adults reached an advanced degree of terrestrial habitation and a size of about three meters from head to tail (2002SchochRR). Eryops megacephalus (Lower Permian); top – reconstruction of the skeleton; bottom – appearance of the animal, sculptor Ya.M. Eglon; exposition of the Orlov Paleontological Museum (Moscow); photo by the author. Anatomical evidences of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) in Eryops megacephalus is suggested by certain features in fossilized pelvic and femoral bones. Notable LCF indicators on the femur include the fovea capitis, the groove on the femoral head, and the femoral head’s tuberosity. In the pelvic bone, signs of LCF presence include acetabular notches, an acetabular fossa, perforations, and irregularities on the acetabular surface. We used th...
