Details
Caius Calpurnius Asclepiades of Prusa (aka "Phylophysicus", one of several men referred to as Asclepiades of Prusa) was a physician who flourished in the second century during the reign of Hadrian. Born in Prusia, Bithynia in 88 CE, he wrote several books on the composition of medicines, both internal and external. The Greek physician Galen recorded some of Asclepiades' medical formulas in his works. He was presented by emperor Trajan with the revenues of seven cities for himself and his family and served as one of the assessors of Roman magistrates in charge of voting tablets. The biographer Antonio Cocchi noted that there were over forty men of history with the name Asclepiades and wrote that this Asclepiades of Prusa was a fellow countryman of, and perhaps a lineal descendant of the Asclepiades who died in 40 BCE.
