Om avsnittet
Cypriot doctors were renowned in antiquity – including Apollonios of Kition and Zeno the Cypriot (not to be confused with the philosopher!) They treated patients, produced treatises and even founded their own schools. The polymath Galen even visited Cyprus to collect a number of medicinal items such as misy, chalcanthos, cistus and even copper to aid in the treatment of a variety of ailments. With me today is Professor Emeritus, Demetrios Michaelides, who shares his knowledge of ancient medicine and its function in Cyprus.
