Explanation:

Ancient Greece was marked by cultural upheaval. It was at this time that many areas of knowledge began to develop, such as philosophy, history and medicine. Until then, during the Archaic Period, it was believed that disease was related to religiosity and mysticism and that everything that happened to the human body was the responsibility and action of the gods.

From the 5th century BC, medicine began to evolve as a field of practical and intellectual knowledge. Doctors became professionals responsible for the knowledge and application of medicinal plants to cure diseases and the development of surgical techniques in the context of war. However, health problems were still attributed to the intervention of the gods, so the Greek doctors were also priests, so that they could call on the gods to help them.
