Asclepius( Ασκλη π ιος, Askl ê pios/Sclepius is a physician, son of the god of light Apollo and Princess Coronis of Thessaly, some say the son of Apollo and Clemene.
Version 1
Asclepius( Ασκλη π ιος, Askl ê pios/Sclepius: Physician, son of Apollo, the god of light, and Princess Coronis of Thessaly. But when Colonis was pregnant, he fell in love with the mortal Ischys. Angry Apollo dispatched his sister, the hunting god Artemis, to shoot her to death. During the cremation, Apollo rescued the unborn Asclepius from the body and handed it over to the wise horse Chiron. Karon raised Asclepius to adulthood and taught him medicine and hunting.
Asclepius's medical skills became increasingly sophisticated, and he obtained a small bottle of incredible blood from the snake haired witch Gorgon from the goddess of wisdom Athena: taken from the left blood vessel, it was a deadly poison; But if taken from the blood vessel on the right, this blood can bring death back to life. Zeus, the great god, was very angry about this matter because it threatened the immortality that only gods possessed, so he struck Asclepius to death with lightning. In retaliation, Apollo, who was angered, shot and killed Cyclopes, the three giants who had forged lightning arrows for Zeus. Zeus was furious and sent Apollo to Troy to build walls for mortals, but he also elevated Asclepius to the sky and turned him into Ophiuchus. People also worshipped Asclepius as the god of medicine.
Version 2
Esclepius, with the noble aspiration of saving all humanity, often investigates the properties of animals and plants in the wild mountains and forests, seeking drugs to prevent and treat diseases, much like the legend of the Chinese Shennong family tasting a hundred herbs. He saved many endangered patients with his superb medical skills, causing a significant reduction in the number of people in the underworld, which made Hades, the brother in charge of the god Zeus, dissatisfied; So, he told his younger brother Zeus to defend himself, and Zeus killed Esclepius with lightning. Afterwards, Zeus felt a little regretful and elevated Aeslepius to the rank of medical god, making him the protector of humanity. Especially after the famous Trojan War, as Esclepius had served as a military doctor to heal soldiers, he gained widespread admiration as a medical god.
Once, he was lost in thought while treating a disease, and a venomous snake quietly coiled around his cane. He killed the snake. At this moment, another venomous snake appeared, holding a medicinal herb in its mouth, reviving the first dead snake. This made Escripius realize. Snakes have always been regarded as the embodiment of wisdom. Snakes are poisonous and can cause death; But at the same time, snakes also possess mysterious healing abilities. Perhaps due to their ability to burrow and march year-round, they are familiar with all the properties of plants and plants, including their medicinal properties. Their rough nests are where many effective medicines grow. From then on, in his practice as a physician, Aeschypius not only carried a cane, but also always had a snake coiled around it.
In the West, the serpent coiled scepter is a symbol of medicine and the medical community, and the emblem of the World Health Organization is a serpent coiled scepter. Many medical institutions in countries such as the United States, Britain, and Germany also have the symbol of the snake. On European buildings, it is common to see high legged cups entwined by snakes, which is the logo of a pharmacy.
This badge originated from the story of the medical god Asclepius in Greek mythology. He has a cane wrapped in a snake, and his daughter Akso represents the "god of medicine". In many murals, Akzo feeds a long snake with a bowl shaped medicine bowl.
On the badge, Akzo's medicine bowl is also wrapped around a snake. The staff of Asclepius represents medicine, while the bowl of Akzo represents pharmacy. The lucky snake emblem has spread throughout Western countries with the spread of Greek mythology.
