Ancient skulls have been found with holes cut in them, showing evidence that the bone re-grew after the cuts had been made. Whether this was actually brain surgery is another matter, but it's clear that that patient lived for years after the procedure. The procedure is called trepanning or trepanation.
An anthropologist might infer that someone did not die from successful brain surgery by examining skeletal remains for evidence of healed incisions or drilling marks on the skull. Absence of trauma to the cranium or signs of infection in the bone could also indicate that the surgery was successful. Additional evidence from historical records or medical texts could provide context to support this conclusion.
Lucy's brain was approximately one-third the size of a modern human brain.
Isaac Newton's brain weighed about 1,300 grams, which is within the normal range for an adult's brain size. There is no evidence to suggest that his brain was exceptionally large or unique in any way.
A Neanderthal's brain typically had a volume of around 1300-1750 cubic centimeters, which is roughly equivalent to 79-107 cubic inches.
The average Neanderthal brain size was about 1,600 cc, which is slightly larger than the average modern human brain size of around 1,400 cc. This suggests that Neanderthals had relatively large brains compared to their body size.
Homo sapiens had advanced cognitive abilities, such as better problem-solving skills and communication, which helped them develop more effective hunting strategies. They also had better tools, such as specialized weapons and traps, that increased their hunting efficiency. Additionally, Homo sapiens had a strong social structure that allowed them to collaborate and coordinate their hunting efforts.
Yes the Aztec did perform successful operations on the brain.
Brain surgery has been practiced since the late Stone Age period. Successful brain operations took place in circa 7000 BCE.
A neurosurgeon is a Doctor Who specialises in disorders of the brain and central nervous system. A neurosurgeon is someone who does surgery on the nervous system (especially the brain).
IQ is a result of the interactions of many parts and the history of the brain or how it's "wired". However we don't yet know exactly how it works. But in principle it should be possible and some brain surgery arguably does improve the function of the brain.
Why not just ask how to perform brain surgery, and have someone type it in for you.....
