Title A name given to the resource Dr David Livingstone Humerus Cast Description An account of the resource A replica cast of David Livingstone's left humerus, showing a compound fracture which occurred when he was mauled by a lion on his first expedition. The cast being made prior to his internment in Westminster Abbey, the old healed fracture proved that the remains were indeed those of David Livingstone. It was presented to the Royal College by the Livingstone Memorial Trust in 1973 on the anniversary of his death, and is contained within a modern glazed case. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/FSVfGkNOMTE?rel=0" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> <div class="sketchfab-embed-wrapper"><iframe width="640" height="480" src="https://sketchfab.com/models/b2752b227d9449da870b80ae90f04932/embed" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; vr" mozallowfullscreen="true" webkitallowfullscreen="true"></iframe> <p style="font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; margin: 5px; color: #4a4a4a;"><a href="https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/david-livingstone-humerus-replica-cast-b2752b227d9449da870b80ae90f04932?utm_medium=embed&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_campaign=share-popup" target="_blank" style="font-weight: bold; color: #1caad9;">David Livingstone Humerus Replica Cast</a> by <a href="https://sketchfab.com/rcpsgheritage?utm_medium=embed&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_campaign=share-popup" target="_blank" style="font-weight: bold; color: #1caad9;">RCPSG Heritage</a> on <a href="https://sketchfab.com?utm_medium=embed&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_campaign=share-popup" target="_blank" style="font-weight: bold; color: #1caad9;">Sketchfab</a></p> </div> Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource c. 1874 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 2006/6 3D Animation David Livingstone Visualization
