Good day dear Hive community, I hope you all had a December which is full of positive experiences and you are all well! In this post, I would like to go into a little more detail about a Greek deity and hope you can do something new.
Here you can see one or the other work of art which I created with the help of artificial intelligence and which is supposed to express the god Asclepius from Greek mythology a little better. Asclepius is also known as the son of the god of light and healing Apollo as well as Coronis and he is also revered as the god of healing and medicine and he learned these skills from the centaur Chiron who taught him for years in the art of healing. He was so talented in this field that he had quickly surpassed everyone else and he traveled early to the Greek island of Kos where he taught the inhabitants his arts and when it came to medicine he had knowledge in the most important areas such as surgery, herbalism and he even had supernatural abilities and with the help of the blood of Medusa could even bring the dead to life. His most important characteristics included his Aesculapius was which was wrapped in a snake and is still an important symbol in medicine today and he himself is depicted with a beard and in his honor were built some temples which in antiquity were visited by people who were in search of healing and the most famous temples were in Epidaurus, Sicily as well as Pergamon and the people visited his temples where Asclepius usually treated them in their sleep.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read through my post and I hope you like it and can learn something new about mythology!
