 | | For those who have not read that worthy epic, Polidarius was the Son of Ascelpius and whom, together with his brother Machon, went to the War against Troy. |
 | | Machon was said to be the Ancient Father of Surgical Medicine whilst Polidarius, the more gentle of the two, was said to be the father of Herbal Medicine. |
 | | It is interesting to note that of the two, Polidarius returned from the war whereas Machon was killed in Combat. |
