Summary edit

Human left femur, Tell Fara, Palestine, 100 BCE-200 CE
Title
Human left femur, Tell Fara, Palestine, 100 BCE-200 CE
Description

The femur bone is the bone joining the hip and knee joints. This femur shows an unreduced bone fracture. This means that the bones were not correctly realigned, using a splint or by surgical means, and therefore did not heal correctly. These femurs are from the left leg and the right leg of a human, although it is not clear if they are a pair. The bones were excavated at Tell Fara, Palestine, by the British School of Archaeology in Egypt, 1928-1929. The bones were purchased by Henry Wellcome from University College London the following year.

العربية: عظم الفخذ هو العظم الذي يصل مفاصل الورك والركبة. يظهر عظم الفخذ كسر عظمي غير مختزل. هذا يعني أن العظام لم يتم تعديلها بشكل صحيح ، باستخدام جبيرة أو بالوسائل الجراحية ، وبالتالي لم تلتئم بشكل صحيح. هؤلاء الفخذين من الساق اليسرى والساق اليمنى للإنسان ، على الرغم من أنه ليس من الواضح ما إذا كانوا زوجًا. تم حفر العظام في تل فارة ، فلسطين ، من قبل المدرسة البريطانية للآثار في مصر ، 1928-1929. تم شراء العظام من قبل هنري ويلكوم من كلية لندن الجامعية في العام التالي.
