CAESAREAN BIRTH
It is said that Julius Caesar had been delivered that way.In those days in Rome if a woman was dead or dying with an unborn child in her womb,then it would be rescued by the method now known as Caesarean Section. In Latin Caedere means to cut-hence Caeser got his name after being delivered by this method and the method began to be known as Caesarean Section.
