Asklepios is the God of the medical profession. He was the favourite son of Apollo, 
also a God of medicine and Coronis. He acquired the gift of healing early in life from
his father. He was killed by Zeus with a bolt of lightning for having the audacity to
raise a mortal from death. There are several temples built in his name especially in
Epidaurus.
