EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the trepanned skull from Jericho, a remarkable artifact that offers a glimpse into ancient medical practices. Discovered in Tomb G88, this bronze age relic now resides at the National Museum of Jordan in Amman. The front trepanning on the skull reveals an astonishing fact - the individual survived their first operation. However, subsequent attempts were less successful, ultimately leading to their untimely demise. Against a striking black background, this studio shot emphasizes the intricate details and haunting beauty of this historical object. The image transports us back in time to an era where trephination was performed as a means of treating various ailments or spiritual beliefs. The significance of this artifact extends beyond its physical attributes; it represents human curiosity and resilience in the face of adversity. It serves as a reminder that even our ancestors sought answers through unconventional methods when faced with life's challenges. As we contemplate this trepanned skull, we are reminded of our mortality and the fragility of life itself. It invites us to reflect on how far medicine has progressed since those early days while honoring those who came before us. Through Mike Dixon's lens, we are granted access to not only an archaeological treasure but also a profound symbol that transcends time and connects us with our shared humanity.
