СHIRON AND ACHILLES - SURGEON TEACHING A HERO
"Der Kentaur Chiron und Achille" (see details) (see related A), 1695 Giuseppe Maria Crespi (1665-1747) Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna, Austria
As a mythic figure, the centaur Cheiron or Chiron is presented as a most learned, wise and gentle of the Centaurs and a beloved of the Gods. He is the personification of the origin of surgical medicine. Chiron trained Aesculapius, Achilles, and others in manual skills.
From CHEIRO, which means HAND in Greek, we get via Latin, Ukrainian, French, and Spanish, CHEIROURGOS, CHIRURGOS, CHIRURGH, QUIROFANO, CHIRUGIEN, SURGIEN, CIRUJANO, and SURGERY. CHIROpractors or CHEIROpractors specialize in MANipulation, while CHIRURG or SURGEON illuminates CHIROPHANO or QUIROFANO that describe rooms dedicated to surgical operations.
