Abstract
Among other serious scientific efforts of revivalists, somewhat distinc-tive personalities also appeared at the time of the National Revival. Among them was the secondary school teacher, physicist and inventor Jakub Hron Metánovský, whose 100th anniversary of death passed last year.
Although he did not complete his studies at the Faculty of Medicine in Prague, which he began at the age of 51, a medical trace can be found in his works, not only in his inventions, but also in professional Czech medical and anatomical terms. Although he has never become a doctor of medicine, it is certainly worth remembering this peculiar figure in our history.
