DATA REGARDING MEDICAL SUPPORT OF THE MEDIEVAL ROMANIAN STATES’ ARMIES
Abstract
In the paradigm of the famous assertion by Winston Churchill, quoted as ”The farther back you can look, the farther forward you are likely to see”. I considered necessary, useful and relevant, a short synthetic analysis regarding the workings of the sanitary service in medieval Romanian state armies. I judge that the errors, mistakes and the successes in the medical field, of the great battles and past military campaigns can serve as history lessons as well as life and practice lessons to the new generations of military doctors.
Keywords: Medieval times; wars; armed conflicts; medics; surgeons; barbers; conjure men; military medical support;medical chariot; provisional military hospitals
