I was dubious about MMRs (Maternal Mortality Rate) being low. After research, it looks like my intuition in this case was off. Apparently today the highest rate is in North Africa where the lifetime probability of such a death is 1 in 30. I stopped looking after this and can only guess that the ancients had difficulties too but may not have had good statistics. I did find that the earliest recorded cesarian was a few hundred years BC!!! Anyway….
