The term “median” carries a variety of meanings in literary works, serving both technical and historical purposes. In anatomical and descriptive narratives, it often refers to the central or symmetrical line of a structure—for instance, noting how vessels cross the median line or how specific nerves and fissures are positioned ([1], [2], [3], [4]). At the same time, “median” also identifies pivotal historical moments and peoples, as seen in references to conflicts like the Median War or significant figures like Darius the Median ([5], [6], [7]). Moreover, in demographic contexts, it is employed in statistical reporting, such as determining the median age of populations ([8], [9], [10]). Thus, the word “median” functions as a marker of centrality, whether in the literal, anatomical sense or as an indicator of numerical and historical significance.
