Galen Clark in the Big Tree Grove

Galen Clark ( March 28, 1814 – March 24, 1910 ) is known as the first European American to discover the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoia trees, and is notable for his role in gaining legislation to protect it and the Yosemite area, and for 24 years serving as Guardian of Yosemite National Park.

Galen Clark was born in 1814 in the small town of Dublin, New Hampshire.

* Today, the Giant Sequoia that would have been the first of its kind to be seen by Clark at the Mariposa Grove is named and marked " Galen Clark Tree " ( 240 feet ; diameter 15. 3 at 10 feet above mean base ) in memory of his contribution to the preservation of the Giant Sequoia ecosystem and the idea of the national park.

Other famous examples of Vesalius disproving Galen in particular was his discovery that the lower jaw was only one bone, not two ( which Galen had assumed from animal dissection ) and his proof that blood did not pass through the interatrial septum.

He appears to have been very near the discovery of the circulation of the blood, for in a passage preserved by Galen he says:

Originally, it was thought that blood reaching the right side of the heart passed through small ' pores ' in the septum into the left side to be oxygenated, as theorized by Galen ; however, the discovery of pulmonary circulation disproves this theory, which had previously been accepted since the second century.

Like Herophilus, Galen, Ibn al-Nafis, Michael Servetus, Realdo Colombo and William Harvey, he is credited as making a discovery in the circulation of the blood.
