Aulus Cornelius Celsus, a Roman encyclopedist, is credited with introducing the terms "femur" and "patella" in his medical writings. The femur is the thigh bone, while the patella refers to the kneecap. Celsus's work laid the groundwork for the study of anatomy and surgery in ancient medicine, helping to standardize terminology in the field.
