{doctor_roman} Asklepieion
{doctor_roman_desc}
Sanctuary of Asklepieos\n\nThe god Asklepeios, who was the son of Apollon nand Koronis, the daughter of the King of Thessaly, was a deified mythical hero believed to have possessed the knowledge of life and death. His sanctuaries, each called the Asklepieion, were havens for the sick and infirm. A patient underwent numerous rituals including sacrifices, massages, purifying baths and fasting which were believed to cure ailments and diseases. After these rituals, a patient would spend a night in the temple, a ritual known as enkoimesis.\n\nIn such a place of healing, therapy and treatment was based on the belief that an individual's sickness was psychosomatic in origin, therefore the cure was to be sought from within the individual's self. The doctor-priests aimed at rousing and augmenting a person's inner power to restore health and create a harmony between body and soul.

{doctor_seleucid} Medicvs
{doctor_seleucid_desc}
Medicus\n\nRoman medicine came to be quite advanced in time, as they not only relied on Greeks to serve as doctors, but the many wars of Rome gave doctors and healers much practice in treating diseases and injuries. Surgeons were skilled at removing sling bullets and arrowheads from wounded soldiers, provided treatment for new and strange diseases that came with travelers to Rome, and aided in creating a relatively healthy environment for citizens. Quarantines for the sick have even been found amongst ruins, with doubly insulated walls to provide both thermal and acoustic insulation. It is widely believed that the Roman armies benefitted from the best field medicine seen in any army until the 20th century.
{doctor_seleucid_desc_short}
Rome relied much on Greek doctors who advanced medicine greatly to create a relatively healthy lifestyle for the ancient world.

{doctor_carthage} Akester
{doctor_carthage_desc}
Healer\n\nA healer was a person knowledgeable in common medical practices, typically trained by older and more experienced healers. This system of apprenticeship allowed medical knowledge to progress and spread rapidly. A healer's knowledge had its shortcomings, however: critically wounded people and the seriously ill still typically died, and the mortality rate in the ancient world remained high even for minor injuries and ailments, though healers did cure many problems, treat the ones they couldn't cure, and provided limited pain relief to suffering patients. Herbology and alchemy played prominent roles in a healer's cures, as did prayers and superstitions that aided a patient's outlook and gave them hope, which often would help more than any salve or poultrice.

{doctor_carthage_desc_short}
A healer is a practician who can help a person with some of his usual pains and disturbances but his aid has its limits.

{doctor_numidia} Asklepieion
{doctor_numidia_desc}
Ptolemaic Sanctuary of Asklepieos\n\nThe god Asklepeios, son of Apollon and Koronis, the daughter of the King of Thessaly, a deified mythical hero-doctor, was believed to possess the knowledge of life and death. The obvious place to be when you are a believer in search of healing is his sanctuary, the Asklepieion.\n\nA patient is expected to partake in a number of rituals, which are believed to cure the sick. These rituals involve the making of sacrifices, massaging from physicians, purificatory preparation baths, fasting and finally the patient spending a night in the god’s temple, a process known as enkoimesis.\n\nIn such a place, therapy is based on the belief that, since an individual's sickness has a psychosomatic origin, the power to restore health is likewise to be sought within him. The therapy of the doctor-priests, therefore, aim at the rousing and augmentation of an inner power of restoring health, which is, in fact, the harmony of soul and body.\n\nAlthough the Ptolemaioi honored Asklepios greater than they did other Hellenic gods, his temples were not built in all cities so smaller Asklepieions were built instead, where the medical duties took priority over religious.
{doctor_numidia_desc_short}
An Asklepieion was a center for medical treatment and knowledge, but also relied greatly on the patient's belief in the god's powers.

{doctor_spain} Healer (TRANSLATE ME PLEASE!)
{doctor_spain_desc}
Healer\n\nThe Iberians are usually highly naturalistic, and as such have a familiarity with certain medicinal plants that can be used when a person falls ill. However, sometimes common knowledge is not enough to heal, and only a few people actually have the profound understanding to cure graver wounds and diseases.\n\nUsually it is an elder person who has acquired the expertise through the years, or someone which has been instructed by it, that performs the role of a healer. An influential man or an entire village may choose to support this person, by giving it housing and sustenance in return for its services.

{hospital_greek} Mega Asklepieion
{hospital_greek_desc}
Any time you need cure, you can look for it in any of the Asklepieia, but, if your case is severe enough, you probably have to visit one of the greater ones. Such famed Asklepieia can be found in Epidauros, Pergamon or any place that Asklepios has the stronger following. Their fame helps to gather the most famous of the doctors so you can have a thorough and efficient treatment that couldn't be provided anywhere else.\n\nEven if these doctors are more interested in their earthly medical duties than their religious ones, they still trace their lineage and inspiration to Asklepeios, and call themselves his descendants.\n\nAlthough his temple is always the central building, the ones necessary for visitors and patients (enkoimeterion, baths, gymnasium, katagogeion, stoas, etc.) have grown significantly in size, thus surrounding and hiding the religious building. As it happens in all of the Asklepieia, the patient can be advised to use these facilities and as part of his therapy can sleep-in the enkoimeterion.

With more educated and holy men interested in the knowledge centered in an Asklepieion, a rather large one can become a great center of learning and healing.

{hospital_carthage} Iatros
{hospital_carthage_desc}
Doctor\n\nA doctor is an educated man, a person who has spent many years studying the prevalent currents of medical practice at his place and time. He has a fairly good knowledge of human anatomy and some knowledge of physiology which allows him to have an idea about the causes and cure of some of the most common illnesses. There are, of course, limitations to the methods availble to him. He is mostly a pathologist and does not perform surgery but he is able to treat wounds. He is also capable of treating infections. He may lack later discoveries, like antibiotics, but he possesses the ability to construct useful drugs, mainly from plants. His examination skills are quite impressive and can often diagnose an illness with a few questions to the patient and a mild physical examination. Unfortunately, he may often be unable to offer much aid when the patient suffers from an incurable disease. Historically, since the classical age, hellenic medical practice had become widely disjoined from devine powers and supertition and tried to establish a basis on human anatomy and physiology, at least on an estimate of those as close as it was at the time.

Casse Druidic Hospital\n\nIn Celtic society, doctors are drawn from the 'druid' class. These men are best remembered in their priestly or legal roles, but they were, in essence, any extensively 'college-educated' individuals in Celtic society. This included doctors and surgeons. Celts often imitated Hellenic medicine, but also used local medicine to create various drugs and methods of improving general health. These places were essentially hospitals of the day, where in dangerous surgeries could be performed, and deadly illnesses treated, under the expert care of druids who had spent their lives dedicated to the study of healing the sick and infirmed.
