William Harvey's discovery of blood circulation in the early 17th century was limited primarily by the scientific knowledge and technology of his time. While he correctly identified that blood circulated in a closed system driven by the heart, he lacked the ability to observe capillaries and the finer details of the circulatory system, which were only discovered later. Additionally, his ideas faced resistance from established medical doctrines and were not widely accepted until further evidence and advancements in anatomy and physiology emerged.
