Question: Where did the period in history when anatomical studies of nerves greatly increase begin in the continent of Segrate?

<P0-S0> the thurian age is a specific epoch in the fictional timeline used by robert e. howard in his kull stories. <P0-S1> it predates the hyborian age of the conan the barbarian stories and is known to them as the "pre-cataclysmic age". <P0-S2> the main continent is called thuria, although smaller continents such as atlantis and an unnamed eastern continent exist, as do several island chains. <P0-S3> most of the world is unexplored wilderness inhabited by "scattered clans and tribes of primitive savages." <P0-S4> the boundary between the two ages is marked by the "great cataclysm," which might have taken place as early as ca. <P0-S5> 35,000 to 40,000 b.c, or as recently as 18,000 b.c. <P0-S6> depending on the sources considered. <P0-S7> when robert e. howard began to chronicle the adventures of conan the cimmerian, in the early 1930s, he prepared a fictional history of the hyborian age which he had created. <P0-S8> that "history" dealt not only with the period during and after conan's life, but also with events some eight thousand years earlier, during the thurian civilization which produced king kull, an exiled warrior from atlantis, in the days before his continent sank into the surging seas. <SEP> <P1-S0> Segrate received the honorary title of city with a presidential decree on 23 June 1989. <P1-S1> Although it is a small town, Segrate hosts large structures such as the CILEA Interuniversity Consortium, among the most advanced supercomputing centers in Europe, and the San Raffaele Hospital. <SEP> <P2-S0> archaic greece was the period in greek history lasting from the eighth century bc to the second persian invasion of greece in 480 bc, following the greek dark ages and succeeded by the classical period. <P2-S1> the period began with a massive increase in the greek population and a series of significant changes which rendered the greek world at the end of the eighth century as entirely unrecognisable as compared to its beginning. <P2-S2> according to anthony snodgrass, the archaic period in ancient greece was bounded by two revolutions in the greek world. <P2-S3> it began with a ``structural revolution ''which`` drew the political map of the greek world'' and established the poleis, the distinctively greek city - states, and ended with the intellectual revolution of the classical period. <SEP> <P3-S0> The Roman physician Galen also argued for the importance of the brain, and theorized in some depth about how it might work. <P3-S1> Galen traced out the anatomical relationships among brain, nerves, and muscles, demonstrating that all muscles in the body are connected to the brain through a branching network of nerves. <P3-S2> He postulated that nerves activate muscles mechanically by carrying a mysterious substance he called pneumata psychikon, usually translated as "animal spirits". <P3-S3> Descartes, like Galen, thought of the nervous system in hydraulic terms. <P3-S4> Galen's ideas were widely known during the Middle Ages, but not much further progress came until the Renaissance, when detailed anatomical study resumed, combined with the theoretical speculations of René Descartes and those who followed him. <P3-S5> He believed that the highest cognitive functions are carried out by a non-physical res cogitans, but that the majority of behaviors of humans, and all behaviors of animals, could be explained mechanistically. <SEP> <P4-S0> The Renaissance (UK: / rɪˈneɪsəns /, US: / rɛnəˈsɑːns /) is a period in European history, covering the span between the 14th and 17th centuries. <P4-S1> It grew in fragments, with the very first traces found seemingly in Italy, coming to cover much of Europe, for some scholars marking the beginning of the modern age. <P4-S2> It is an extension of the Middle Ages, and is bridged by the Age of Enlightenment to modern history.
