Bless you! This topic has always been one of the most important parts of our life, nobody can get around to dealing with this and thus also not to the question of the right medicine or treatment method.

In Rome, as we suspect with the Romans, medicine was not part of the empire from the start. The knowledge of caring for the injured and sick only developed over time and after the conquest of Greece.

The Roman territory from 120 BC. Greek doctors, like Asklepiades, who settled in BC, brought "modern" medicine to Rome and the number of medical practices increased rapidly due to the success of the treatment. The military should also benefit from these successes, because at that time the mutual aid to comrades mentioned in Illias is still the state of affairs, which, however, should soon be replaced by trained military doctors.

Today we welcome a Roman medicus with us, let us teach you and find out how progressive the medicine of the empire was a good 2000 years ago!
