Alessandro Achillini

Alessandro Achillini (Latin Alexander Achillinus; 20^[1] or 29^[2]^[3] October 1463^[4] (or possibly 1461^[1]) – 2 August 1512) was an Italian philosopher and physician. He is known for the anatomic studies that he was able to publish, made possible by a 13th-century edict putatively by Emperor Frederick II allowing for dissection of human cadavers, and which previously had stimulated the anatomist Mondino de Luzzi (c. 1270 – 1326) at Bologna.^[5]
