An Infant Femur Bearing Cut Marks from Roman Hambleden, England
A perinatal infant skeleton from the first–fourth century AD Roman villa site at Hambleden, England, shows what appear to be cut marks on the proximal part of the right femur. Gross, microscopic and micro-computed tomography evaluations suggest that they occurred perimortem and were probably caused by a non-serrated blade. The reason for the cuts is uncertain, but their location is consistent with the practice of embryotomy, as described in class…
Making Sense as a Cultural Practice

History without Historians? Medical History and the Internet
Recent claims that the eighteenth-century men-midwives William Smellie and William Hunter had women murdered to order, to provide the illustrations for their impressive atlases of obstetrics, raise fresh questions about how medical history is generated, presented and evaluated in the media and, in particular, on the internet. This paper traces the generation and subsequent reception of what, for some, has now become a ‘historical fact’, in order …
Unravelling the Extraterritorial Riddle
The European Convention on Human Rights imposes an obligation on contracting states to secure the rights of persons within their ‘jurisdiction’. Yet, the meaning of ‘jurisdiction’ is contested, with the result that the extent of states’ extraterritorial obligations is unclear. R (Hassan) v. Secretary of State for Defence is the latest in a series of English cases to examine the obligations of the British forces in Iraq. This comment critically as…

Introduction the Destinies of Hysteria
Hysteria, it is often said, has disappeared this century, its problems solved by Freud, or its investigation discredited by the antics of Charcot. And accompanying its alleged disappearance there has been a declining interest in its history among most historians. Yet hysteria was extraordinarily prominent in nineteenth-century medicine and culture. 1 It posed in direct and personal form the key questions of gender and mind/body relations, and, as…

Epidemiology in Antarctica
The 20th century has witnessed a growing awareness of epidemiology as the science of public health. It has also seen both an expansion and a shift in emphasis in epidemiological activity. These developments are, in part, a consequence of contemporary changes in the natural history of disease which have their roots in changing social conditions, values, and behaviour; an alteration in the human ecosystem. It is prudent to anticipate further change…
Blood pressure in Papua New Guinea
The results of a population survey of blood pressure in the adult residents of two highland villages in the Asaro Valley, Papua New Guinea are reported. The survey was conducted in 1983 as part of a wider epidemiological investigation of non-communicable disease in Papua New Guinea. Response to the survey was 95%, and 308 subjects were examined. Population estimates of both systolic and diastolic blood pressures were low and there was a virtual a…
Patterns of site-specific displacement in cancer mortality among migrants
Taking advantage of the information gathered for the 1975 National Mortality Survey in China, this paper compares the levels of cancer mortality among foreign-born and United States-born Chinese around 1970 with those of the communities of origin of the majority of Chinese migrants to the US. Age-adjusted rates indicate two distinctive site-specific patterns among US Chinese: a downward trend for cancers of high risk among Guangdong and Hong Kong…
