The first recorded person to treat a gunshot wound is generally considered to be the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates, who described methods for treating wounds, including those caused by arrows and other projectiles. However, more specific references to gunshot wounds emerged in the 16th century as firearms became prevalent in warfare. Notably, Ambroise Paré, a French barber-surgeon, made significant advancements in the treatment of gunshot wounds in the 16th century by developing new surgical techniques and promoting the use of ligatures to control bleeding.
