    I wonder if anyone survived trepanning in the Bronze age ?

    There is evidence for bone regrowth after trepanning in skulls
    from the neolithic. So some indeed survived for a significant
    time after the operation.

    One survey of ancient skulls suggested that around 40% survived. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trepanning#Prehistoric_evidence
