1706PolluxJ

Fragments from the book Pollux J. Iuliu Polydeukus Onomasticum Graece & Latine (1706). In Greek, the author refers to ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) as "νεῦρον" and also points out the synonym "ἰσχίον". This term was used by Rufus of Ephesus (2020ArkhipovSV_ProlyginaIV). The fragment of the Onomasticum dealing with the LCF was quoted by Giovanni Filippo Ingrassia (1603IngrassiaeIP).

Quote p. 245

Lib. II, Cap. IV, Segm. 186

[Grc]

καιλεῖται δὲ καὶ τὸ νεῦρον, τὸ συνέχον τὴν κοτύλην πρὸς τὸν μηρὸν, ἰσχίον. ὁμώνυμον δέ ἐστιν αὖτῷ καὶ τὸ ἄρθρον. καὶ τὸ μὲν τῇ κοτύλῃ συνηρμοσμένον στρογγύλον ὀστοῦν, μηροῦ κεφαλὴ καλεῖται.

[Lat]

Nervus etiam coxam femori colligans, ἰσχίον dicitur. codemque nomine, & ipse articulus nominatur. Os vero volubile coxendici conjundum, femoris caput appellatur.

Translation

[Eng]

The sinew connecting the pelvis to the thigh is called ἰσχίον. The joint is named by the same name, but the rotating bone connected to the pelvis is called the femoral head.

Australopithecus afarensis

AUSTRALOPITHECUS AFARENSIS In 1735, Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778) placed humans as a species «Homo nosce te ipsum» in the order Anthropomorpha along with monkeys and sloths (1735LinneC). In a publication in 1758, the naturalist transferred humans to the order Primates (1758LinneC). Today, humans and chimpanzees are united in the tribe Hominini, as descended from a common ancestor (2001GrovesCP). It has been established that the chromosome that distinguishes humans from monkeys was formed before 4.5 Ma (2022PoszewieckaB_GambinA). The hominin subfamily Sahelanthropus tchadensis lived in the Republic of Chad (Central Africa) from 7.2±0.31 to 6.8±0.45 Ma (2008LebatardAE_BrunetM; 2012ReynoldsSC_GallagherA). Reconstruction of its musculoskeletal system showed that the creature could have been an upright bipedal primate (2005ZollikoferCP_BrunetM). Fossils of what is probably the first bipedal representative of the hominid family Orrorin tugenensis, lived 6.1-5.7 Ma and still retained adapta...

Human Children. Retelling of Chapter 1

Short retelling of chapter 1 of the essay: Arkhipov S.V. Human Children: The Origins of Biblical Legends from a Physician's Perspective. Joensuu: Author's Edition, 2025. [In Russian] Chapter 1. THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD The Bible stands as a remarkable testament to religious and philosophical thought, passed down through the ages with minimal alterations. At its core lies a collection of texts rooted in the sacred writings of Jewish and Samaritan traditions, known as the Torah, meaning "Law" or "Teaching." In its narrowest sense, the Torah comprises the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, collectively called the Tanakh—an acronym derived from the Hebrew terms for "Law/Teaching" (Torah), "Prophets" (Nevi’im), and "Writings" (Ketuvim). Beyond this Written Torah, there exists an Oral Torah, which includes the Mishnah, Talmud, and Midrash, offering interpretations and expansions of the written texts. The Written Torah it...
