O autorovi

Václav Smrčka

Doc. MUDr. Václav Smrčka CSc., lékař, plastický chirurg a chirurg ruky. Po téměř 20 let spolupracuje s archeology a antropology při výzkumu chorob na kosterních pozůstatcích pravěkých populací a rekonstrukci stravy. Zájem o historii stravy a vývoj chorob jej přivedl na Ústav dějin medicíny 1. LF, kde přednáší paleopatologii. Pro rekonstrukci stravy je nezastupitelné národopisné srovnávání, a tak vznikla dlouholetá spolupráce s bratrem na národopisu rodného Povltaví.
