Zodiac Man
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Zodiac Man was used in anatomical diagrams dating from ancient times to the later medieval period.
The human body was believed to be linked to the heavens during this period. This was often illustrated with the Zodiac Man, who had every part of his body linked with an astrological sign. The astrological sign was linked to humourism alongside the weather.
