| Earliest Anatomy of China |
| From 960-1127 two human anatomical atlases were compiled. They were Ou Xi Fan Wu Zang Tu (Ou Xifan’s Anatomical Illustrations) and Cun Zhen Tu (Anatomical Atlas of Truth), which marked the advanced anatomical level at that time. Before the 11th century, anatomy in China was ahead of other civilizations in the world. But after the Song Dynasty (960-1279), due to many reasons, anatomy in China did not develop further. |
