[151] See K. Sudhoff, ‘Weibliche Situsbilder von ca. 1400-1543’, in _Tradition und Naturbeobachtung_, p. 79, Leipzig, 1907. The number and character of the indication lines attached to this figure suggest that the block from which the impression has been taken had previously been used for some other publication. This work, however, if it exists, has not yet come to light.

[153] The mediaeval term, ‘vena chilis’, lasted in anatomy until the end of the sixteenth century and probably later. ‘_Chilis_’ is a corruption of the Greek κοίλη. This hybrid name was abandoned by Vesalius (_Fabrica_, 1543 Basle edition, p. 376) in favour of the title ‘vena cava’. [154] The passage is translated from Michele Medici, _Compendio storico_, pp. 10-11. [155] See A. Laboulbène, ‘Les anatomistes anciens’, in _Revue scientifique pour la France et pour l’Étranger_, vol. xxxviii, p. 641, Paris, 1886; Robert Ritter von Töply in Puschmann, Pagel, and Neuburger, _Handbuch der Geschichte der Medizin_, vol. ii, p. 197, Jena, 1903; G. Martinotti, ‘L’insegnamento dell’ Anatomia in Bologna prima del secolo xix’, in _Studi e Memorie per la storia dell’ università di Bologna_, vol. ii, p. 51, Bologna, 1911. [156] An intermediate anatomist was Gulielmo Varignana, who was professor of Medicine in Bologna, and is recorded as having opened for judicial purposes, on February 15, 1302, the corpse of one alleged to have been poisoned. See Michele Medici, op. cit. The investigation is referred to above.
