EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating print captures a glimpse into the world of ancient Greek doctors and their unique practices. Despite their professional skill in medicine, it seems that even these skilled healers felt the need for some extra help from the gods. In this image, we see a group of Greek doctors performing a ritual sacrifice of a sheep to Esculapius, the god of healing and medicine.
The scene is both intriguing and slightly unsettling, as we witness these esteemed physicians engaging in what may seem like a superstitious act by modern standards. However, in ancient Greece, such rituals were not uncommon as people believed in the power of divine intervention to aid in their medical treatments.
As we reflect on this historical moment captured by Mary Evans Picture Library, we are reminded of the deep connection between religion and medicine in ancient times. The sacrifices made to Esculapius were seen as offerings to ensure success in healing practices and to seek protection from any potential harm.
Overall, this print serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that have shaped our understanding of medicine throughout the ages. It offers us a glimpse into the beliefs and practices of ancient Greek doctors who sought both earthly knowledge and divine assistance in their quest to heal others.
