Moschion (physician)
Script error: No such module "For".
Moschion, (Template:Langx), is a physician quoted by Soranus,[1] Andromachus,[2] and Asclepiades Pharmacion,[3] who lived in or before the 1st century. He may be the same person who was called the "Corrector" (Template:Langx), because though he was one of the followers of Asclepiades of Bithynia, he ventured to controvert his opinions on some points.[4]
A physician of the same name is mentioned also by Soranus,[5] Plutarch,[6] Alexander of Tralles,[7] Aëtius[8] Pliny,[9] and Tertullian.[10]
In Byzantine times, a Latin treatise on gynecology by an otherwise unknown Muscio was translated into Greek; this author came to be wrongly identified with Moschion.[11]
