Health & Healthcare in Roman Times

[@nefertini141]

I work in the operating room in a level II trauma center. I recently visited Vindolanda and other English Heritage sites on Hadrian's Wall. I showed my peers back home in the U.S. pictures of Roman surgical instruments and everyone was fascinated by the similarities they had to modern instruments. I.e. the retractors and forceps are unmistakable. Thank you for this awesome presentation ☺️

I am so happy I found this. I might be a little late to the party but learning hyper spesific information on history is always a great treat for me. Glad i watched.

It's BC and AD not BCE before communist era and CE communist era!

[@georget5874]

Just saying CE doesn't change the fact that our calendar starts with the birth of Jesus i.e. AD. It's not 2022 years of the 'common era' it's 2022 years since Jesus was born. Our calendar starts with the year Jesus was supposedly born in, so why not call it that.

@@georget5874 The greatest impact on Roman then western civilization was the birth of Christ. To deny it is not only woke it is a joke.

@@georget5874 Using them as a reference to when Jesus was born isn't even accurate though. Jesus is commonly agreed to be born around 4 BCE. Besides, it's not like BCE/CE are anything new. They've been around since they 1700s, (meanwhile, their Latin counterpart, vulgaris aerae, has been around since the 1600s).

BCE is often used as "Before Christian Era" as the exact date of Christ's birth cannot be accurately determined. It is instead used as BC, Before Christ, might actually be incorrect by several years one way or the other.
