As a core task of museums, inventorying requires reliable tools and a standardized terminology. This volume presents two categories of devices that served, on one hand, for personal care, aesthetic and hygienic treatment, and on the other hand, for medical care of people from prehistory to the early Middle Ages. The range includes combs, mirrors, razors, and tweezers, as well as scalpels, dental forceps, and bone saws. The thesaurus introduces both laypeople and scholars to the diverse forms of these cosmetic and medical devices and provides a temporal and spatial context. This valuable overview volume facilitates the identification of archaeological specialty tools and offers a cultural historical outline of (pre)historic beauty and health care.
