In the 2nd century, Galen of Pergamum, an anatomist, clinician, writer and philosopher,wrote the final and highly influential anatomy treatise of ancient times.He compiled existing knowledge and studied anatomy through dissection of animals.He was one of the first experimental physiologists through his vivisection experiments on animals.Galen's drawings, based mostly on dog anatomy, became effectively the only anatomical textbook for the next thousand years.His work was known to Renaissance doctors only through Islamic Golden Age medicine until it was translated from the Greek some time in the 15th century.
