Atlomy

Atlomy breaks through the textual boundary of ancient anatomical writings and constitutes a groundbreaking integrative atlas of Greco-Roman anatomical ideas, terminology, and research. ATLOMY’s atlas advances our understanding of ideas of the body and of empirical methods of scientific research in ancient times. It enables the growing audience of Greco-Roman medical and philosophical writings to engage with these sources in a deeper and more informed manner, thus enhancing studies in related fields. More broadly, ATLOMY has established a tight-knit interdisciplinary heuristic model for the study of the history of science, one which offers means for bridging the disciplinary gap between historians and classicists and the natural scientists whose works we study.
