During the first century (Ancient Roman times) there
was a man by the name of Aulus Cornelius Celsus who also described
brain injuries in amazing detail, which through these studies lead
to many other great discoveries of the brain. During the Renaissance
there was great incline in the studies of anatomy. Leonardo Davinci
was one of the reasons for this incline. He created hundreds of
remarkable accurate anatomical sketches that help many other anatomists
make future discoveries.
Another famous anatomist was Andre Vesalio he discovered
important information about the Central Nervous System, he was later
declared the Father of Anatomy. There were also many excellent Christian
physicians and surgeons during this period. However the church did
create a ban on the study of anatomy which might have prevented
these surgeons to announce their discoveries.
