BC. The ossuary of this burial holds the bones of nearly a hundred individuals who suffered from diverse pathologies and injuries. This study presents the discovery of a skull with two bilateral perforations on both mastoid bones. These evidences point to a mastoidectomy, a surgical procedure possibly performed to relieve the pain this prehistoric individual may have suffered as a result of otitis media and mastoiditis. The hypothesis of surgical intervention is also supported by the presence of cut marks at the anterior edge of the trepanation made in the left ear. Furthermore, the results of this paper demonstrate the survival of the individual to both interventions. Given the chronology of this dolmen, this find would be the earliest surgical ear intervention in the history of mankind. | Versión del editor: | https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-06223-6 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/262736 | DOI: | 10.1038/s41598-022-06223-6 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.1038/s41598-022-06223-6 issn: 2045-2322 |
