The ancients never cease to amaze me.
I'm trying to imagine a Greek metal worker making that thing 2,000 years ago.
How did he ever achieve the accuracy required? What were his tools?
It was probably commissioned by someone and would have been very expensive.
This is kind of funny...
The ancient Romans wrote down a detailed descriptions of how to surgically remove man boobs.
But how could anyone survive such a procedure without modern anesthesia and post OP meds? Not to mention sterile instruments and wound care.
I'm guessing they had extensive knowledge about medicinal herbs that has been lost in time.
So obesity in affluent societies is nothing new.
