Image description

English Heritage adviser Jane Sidell (unseen) holds a bronze age skull with a surgically made hole dating back to 1750 BC, in London on August 20, 2002. Discovered on the banks of the Thames in Chelsea, it is thought to be the first skull found in London that shows evidence of trepanation - a prehistoric surgery process, where a portion of the bone was removed from a living and most likely conscious patient.
