After Fowler EP Jr. (1947): Medicine of the ear, 2nd ed., T. Nelson, New York)
Eardrum becomes more vertical with age. Or does it?
Fowler (1947): A large group led by Schwalbe believed that the newborn drum ‘slants much more than in adults’ but a group led by Siebenmann did not agree.
Siebenmann (1897, p. 265):
The angle is only slightly less in newborns, and Schwalbe’s observation
that it is almost horizontal was based on a deception.
