Galen (18 maio 130 ano – 20 abr 210 ano)

Descrição:

Galen was a physician who dissected animals rather than humans. Because of this, he had a very skewed idea of human anatomy. He thought that there were two blood systems, originating from the liver. He also believed in the four bodily humors--blood, phlegm, black bile, and yellow bile. He stated that illness came from the four humors being out of balance. Galen advocated the contraries cure.
