Asklepios (altgriechisch Ἀσκληπιός, Ἀσκλαπιός Asklēpiós, Asklāpiós, lateinisch Asclēpius, Aesculāpius, deutsch Asklepius, auch Äskulap, Bedeutung unbekannt, aber auf eine ursprünglich vorgriechische Gottheit hindeutend) ist in der griechischen und römischen Mythologie der Gott der Heilkunst. Die Schlange, die sich in den meisten Darstellungen um den Äskulapstab windet, weist ihn den chthonischen oder Erdgottheiten zu. Nach homerischer Tradition war Asklepios ein Heros und Arzt in Thessalien, der nach dem Tod seine Verehrung als Gott der Medizin erfuhr.
