The Disease That EATS Human Bones | Syphilis at The Bone Museum

SIGN UP NOW FOR NEW BONE MERCH ☠️👜🦴 https://linktr.ee/TheBoneMuseum Visit The Bone Museum: https://www.thebonemuseum.org Within The Bone Museum in Brooklyn, New York, a special collection of human bones tell the story of one of history’s most devastating sexual diseases.... one that eats it's host alive. These artifacts, scarred and deformed by Syphilis, reveal how a single infection could reshape the human body and, in many ways, human history itself. Here we explore the medical, historical, and archaeological evidence of syphilis in human remains, from the skulls on display at The Bone Museum to other cases unearthed across the world. We trace the mysterious origins of the disease, whether it emerged in the Old World, the New World, or from a forgotten intersection of both, and how its spread forever altered medicine, morality, and the human condition. Through these bones, we can see how disease leaves its mark not only on the body, but on civilization itself. Socials   / jonsbones     / jonsbones   Music from Artlist https://artlist.io
