The first author on medical history and compiler of medical knowledge was, in all probability, A. Cornelius Celsus. Uncertainties about his real profession and background are discussed. Some details of his treatise on history, anatomy, general symptoms and signs, and treatment of medical disorders, as far as these might be of interest to a neurologist, are presented.
