models with significant visible signs of disease, we don’t know why. He also
studied the anatomy of many animals.

these manuscripts were left as an inheritance to one of the sons of Melzi, that didn’t know
their value and left them hidden. He did not know the value but he knew that they were
important to his father so he conserved them.
