Asclepius (Asklepios, Aesculapius) is considered the god of health and healing in mythology (Fig. 1). He is the son of the god Apollo (god of healing, truth, and prophecy) and the mortal princess Coronis. Asclepius marries Epione and they have children (six girls, three boys) [1] (Fig. 2) (https://wellcomecollection.org/works/ekhkh79b). The secrets of medicine were passed on to his children by Asclepius. All children of Asclepius carry his healing power [2]. While Apollo, one of the Olympian gods, was seen as the source of healing, his son Asclepius took over this mission. Over time, the cult formed around it and the mythical stories about it were deified [3].
