In a small valley in the Peloponnesus, the site of Epidaurus sprawls out over several levels. The cult of Asclepius first began there, in the 6th century B.C., but the main monuments, particularly the Theatre, considered one of the purest masterpieces of Greek architecture, date from the 4th century. The vast site is a tribute to the healing cults of Greek and Roman times, with temples and hospital buildings devoted to its gods.
