Indians Well Skilled
in Art of Trepanning
Surgery, li) at least one form, was
an advanced art In the New world-'
before the coining of Columbus. This ,
was the operation forjwounds In.the
skull, known as trepriffilng. Such Is
the conclusion of Dr. Ales Hrdlickn,
curator of physical anthropology of
the 8mithsonlan Institution, from an
Intensive study of the “trepanned”
Skulls in the National museiiiu collec-
tions. In the, Andes, he says, there
were skilled "specialists” In this line
who perfected their technique on
corpses and then operated with ex-
treme boldness and rather Uniform "
success ‘On the living. For the most
part they were surgeons atteadlng.to.
the wounded after a battle Doctor
Hrdlicka believes that the beginnings
qf ttrla surgical art may have been
brought from. Asia by some of .the
original migrants and that It con-
nects with the neolithic trephlnings
of. Europe and northern Africif, **-— .
