Mitología Griega y Medicina: Asclepio, su Bastón y una confusión de larga data
Abstract
Resumen: El pueblo griego brindó las bases no solo del llamado pensamiento occidental o racional, sino que influenció con su mitología en muchos aspectos que circundan el contexto médico.
Algunos de estos elementos son tratados en este artículo; a saber: el origen de Asclepio–Esculapio para los romanos- Dios de la medicina, sus formas de curar, el símbolo que lo identifica -el bastón con la serpiente enrollada, y el origen de confusión con el caduceo de Hermes.
