The Mediterranean is a sea in the midst of the most ancient lands of Humanity. It extends from the Azov to the Alboran Sea; between the Near East and the West. Medicine is the oldest science and the expression of a technological and cultural development. The geographical position enabled the first people to leave the land of origin to other maintaining contact and customs of the areas of origin. As a consequence, have been developed trade, artistic, cultural, scientific, medical, surgical research, in particular in pregnancy and delivery.
The penetration and integration between different cultures has enriched the exchange of knowledge among local people who came in contact. Every manifestation of human search, from the sciences to the arts, from politics to economics, from discovery of the disease in their care, to the welfare culture has had among the Mediterranean people finest development and implementation.
