Abstract
Mitoloji, insanlığın tarih öncesi zamanlarından beri dilden dile dolaşarak günümüze kadar gelmiş ve büyük hakikatler yanında modern bilimi şaşırtacak doğrulukta bilgiler
barındırabilmektedir. Günümüz tıbbında kullanılan birçok hastalık tanısının ve bunların tedavi yönteminin isimleri mitolojik efsanelerin ve kahramanların adından köken
almaktadır. Her toplum efsaneyi kendi dili ile anlatmışsa da Roma İmparatorluğu’nun bütün medeniyetlerden toplanmış olduğu bu efsanelerin günümüze ulaşmasında büyük bir payı vardır. Bu yazıda Roma Mitolojisi’nden esinlenerek isimlendirilmiş hastalıkların ve tıbbi terminolojinin kökenleri araştırılmıştır.
