Before anesthesia was a thing
In the 1830s, the surgical theater witnessed a remarkable spectacle as Scottish surgeon Robert Liston prepared to enact a swift and efficient amputation. With medical students poised to assist and onlookers curious to witness, Liston initiated a rapid sequence of movements. The patient's flesh yielded to his blade, and in quick succession, he sawed through the tibia and fibula. In a matter of minutes, the amputation was concluded. Yet, this was an era when surgical interventions were a symphony of suffering, for anesthesia was not yet a ubiquitous ally in the operating room. Patients bore the torment of surgery with consciousness, acutely aware of each cut and sensation. The quest for anesthetics capable of inducing a state of unconsciousness and facilitating meticulous procedures had commenced long before Liston's swift endeavors.

Who Murdered the IceMan?
On September 19th, 1991, a pair of hikers navigating the Ötzal Alps on the boundary between Austria and Italy stumbled upon a preserved body emerging from the ice. Subsequent research revealed that this was no recent climbing accident victim, as initially thought, but rather the mummified remains of a man who had lived approximately 5,300 years ago. He would come to be known as Ötzi the Iceman. Initially, it was speculated that Ötzi, who was believed to be a local shepherd or hunter, had perished due to exposure during adverse weather conditions. However, a startling discovery later unveiled the true cause of his demise, overturning the initial assumptions.
