 The influence of primitive medicine
The empiricists excelled in surgery and pharmacology; a royal student of empiricism, Mithridates VI Eupator, king of Pontus, developed the concept of inducing tolerance of poisons by the administration of gradually increased dosages.
The followers of these men divided into many contending sects; the most notable were the empiricists, who based their doctrine on experience gained by trial and error.
It is with the rise of Greece that empirico-rationalism spreads, and the holistic approach to healing begins to fade.

To the Romans, the greatest enemy the Republic ever faced was not the Goths or Huns, nor even Hannibal, but rather a ferocious and brilliant king on the distant Black Sea: Mithridates Eupator VI of Pontus, known to history as Mithridates the Great.
At age eleven, Mithridates inherited a small mountain kingdom of wild tribesmen, which his wicked mother governed in his place.
Over forty years, Rome sent its greatest generals to contain Mithridates and gained tenuous control over his empire only after suffering a series of devastating defeats at the hands of this cunning and ruthless king.
