Detailed Solution

Charaka wrote a book on medicine known as the Charaka Samhita.
A prominent physician named Charaka published a medical text known as the Charaka Samhita around 2000 years ago. He says there are 360 bones in the human body. This is significantly more than the 200 bones recognised in contemporary anatomy. Charaka calculated this amount by counting the teeth, joints, and cartilage. People may make decisions based on what is discovered about the skeleton. For example, if a skeleton is discovered with jewellery, it is commonly assumed to be that of a lady. However, there are several issues with this. Men frequently wore jewellery. Bone structure is a better approach to determining the gender of a skeleton.
