Aesculapius, Greek God of Medicine

Illustration of Asclepius (Aesculapius), the Greek god of medicine and healing, represented as a statue. Asclepius represents the healing aspect of the medical arts. The rod of Asclepius, a snake-entwined staff, remains a symbol of medicine today (not to be confused with the caduceus, or staff with two snakes). Some historians have proposed that there may have been a historical Asclepius during the Greek Dark Ages, who became the subject of a Hero cult and on whom the mythological character was based. This image has been color enhanced.
