Summary

Description
English: This photograph, taken by René Baumgartner, MD, in Tanzania in 1993, shows a man with an impairment (paralysis of left leg from polio) who uses a simple assistive aid for walking. The aid is similar to one used in Egypt around 1500 B.C.E. as recorded on an ancient Egyptian stele that is now in the Carlsberg Sculpture Museum in Copenhagen.
