the discovery showed that medical knowledge contained in ancient Greek texts, and later in the writings of Roman scholars such as Pliny, was being put into practise in the Roman Empire.This seems a rather odd remark to me. It's as if the writer was surprised they actually put these medical treatments into practice.
