La médecine vétérinaire antique

Having been printed and edited online without Oxford University Press making it possible to proofread the pages of my contribution to The Oxford Handbook of Animals in Classical Thought and Life, Chapter 31 proves to be spoiled in both content and form either by defective lay out in places (see p. 557, Figure 31.1 for the most obvious of the striking examples) or by inaccuracies and inconsistencies, in addition to misprints, throughout. Arbitrarily deleted, added, modified words and phrases affect mainly, yet not only, the formal scientific names of animals with respect to the rules determined by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. Consequently, this pdf file cancels the printed-and-online version of Chapter 31 issued under OUP's own and sole responsibility and it provides the only reliable text of the above mentioned chapter. Whenever referring to it, make sure to mention its status as well as web address-as given below-in order to prevent from any confusion or misunderstanding:

People have lived alongside animals for many centuries, and it can be assumed that they also treated them when they were sick. There are some texts that describe early veterinary care, but details are lacking and medical instruments are hard to come by in archaeological sites. However, as Annelise Binois explains, archaeological findings can provide a lot more information than might be thought, and can start to give a glimpse of the vast history of veterinary medicine.
