"The term was first utilised in 715 BC under the Roman legislation ‘Lex Caesare’ (imperial law), which decreed that a baby should be cut from the womb of a woman who dies during late pregnancy. The term has since been erroneously attributed to Gaius Julius Caesar (100-44 BC) who was traditionally believed to have been born by this method, a speculation that has since been proven false 3. The word ‘caesarean’ is therefore written in lowercase."
