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...

A BRONZE AGE MEDICAL CASE HISTORY. Prologue

  Book manuscript: Arkhipov S.V. A Bronze Age Medical Case History: Interpreting the Book of Genesis in the Light of Modern Medicine. Kyrö : Author’s Edition, 2026. – 808 pp. – 52 tables. – Bibliographical references: 959 entries. 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...

Homo antecessor. Hip disarticulation

  HOMO ANTECESSOR. Hip disarticulation Postmortem separation of the leg from the pelvis in individuals of own species was performed by our evolutionary predecessors. In particular, this was done in the Homo antecessor community, which practiced cannibalism (2003TuttC). Ferna Y. et al. (1999) described evidence of intentional crushing of the femur diaphysis in a young individual (ATD6-76), presumably to extract bone marrow. The bone retained traces of not only several impacts by a striker, but also of an anvil on which the bone lay. The age of the said find in the Gran Dolina cave (Spain) is estimated at about 780 thousand years (1999FernaY_RosellJ). The above features indicate that the femur was initially separated from the soft tissues. In the second stage, the butcher had to use a stone tool to cut the muscles and strong external ligaments of the hip joint. In the next stage, he tore, or perhaps cut off, the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) to mobilize the hip and further manipul...

The First Publication on Prevention

  In our opinion, the first publication on the topic of preventing of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) injury is the abstract of the report: “Arkhipov-Baltiysky SV. On increasing the safety of jumping from heights. Abstracts of reports of the All-Russian Conference ... “Trauma in peacetime and war” (Anapa, 2005).” This text not only holds historical significance but remains relevant for sports, armed forces, circus performers, and other extreme activities. The online version of « О безопасности прыжков с высоты » (On the Safety of High-Altitude Jumps) was published in 2005 on the website « Морфомеханика » www.enet.ru/~archipov/ (no longer supported, archived copy ), specifically in the section « Архив публикация автора » (Archive publications of the author). Translation of the original text from Russian : On Increasing the Safety of Jumping from Heights S . V . Arkhipov-Baltiysky In modern military operations and counter-terrorism activities, personnel of the armed force...
