Chang and Eng Bunker
text:
Chang Bunker and Eng Bunker were Siamese (Thai)-American conjoined twin brothers whose fame propelled the expression "Siamese twins" to become synonymous for conjoined twins in general. They were widely exhibited as curiosities and were "two of the nineteenth century's most studied human beings". The brothers were born with Chinese ancestry in Siam and were brought to the United States in 1829. Physicians inspected them as they became known to American and European audiences in "freak shows".
