He made over 1,500 drawings from cadaver dissections. Included in his studies were muscles of the tongue, the larynx, and the thoracic cavity. Da Vinci\u2019s major anatomical text was <em>Quaderni d\u2019anatomia, <\/em>completed about the year 1500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leonardo\u2019s also performed many scientific experiments that were in advance of his time. By squeezing the lungs of a dead goose, he showed it could produce tones from its larynx. He also described articulation function of the mouth, lips and teeth, and assigned phonetic terms to acoustic signals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Da Vinci\u2019s theorizing was grounded in ancient times. He subscribed to the theory of ventricular localization and adopted the theory of animal spirits, believing that the spirits traveled across the nerves to the ventricles. He studied the location and anatomy and based on his findings he attributed functions to the separate ventricles that differed from those of Nemesius, a medieval physician. Whereas Nemesius localized the processing of sensation in the lateral ventricles, Leonardo argued that they are located in the middle ventricle because the sensory nerves converged in the midbrain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Writings about Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s contributions to anatomy and phonetics.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Imperatori, Charles J.
