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.

Who, When, and Where Wrote the Book of Genesis?

  Who, When, and Where Wrote the Book of Genesis?  A Medical Hypothesis By Sergey V. Arkhipov, MD, PhD & Lyudmila N. Arkhipova, BSN     CONTENT [i]   Abstract [ii]   Introduction [iii]   Egyptian physician [iv]   Asian diviner [v]   Conclusion [vi]   References [vii]   Application [i]   Abstract The Book of Genesis is an example of an ancient literary text that contains important medical insights. We propose that it was written in northern Egypt in the late 17th century BCE, approximately ten years after the Minoan eruption. The protograph likely emerged from the collaboration between an Asiatic seer, who rose to the rank of an Egyptian official, and an Egyptian physician-encyclopedist. By refining its dating and authorship, this hypothesis positions Genesis as a credible source of medical and historical data, thereby enhancing its value for interdisciplinary research.

THE ROLE OF THE HIP JOINT LIGAMENTS
