エピダウロス

Also known as Epidauros

Epidaurus () was a small city (polis) in ancient Greece, on the Argolid Peninsula at the Saronic Gulf. Two modern towns bear the name Epidavros: Palaia Epidavros and Nea Epidavros. Since 2010 they belong to the new municipality of Epidaurus, part of the regional unit of Argolis. The seat of the municipality is the town Lygourio. The nearby sanctuary of Asclepius and ancient theatre were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1988 because of their exemplary architecture and importance in the development and spread of healing sanctuaries and cults across the ancient Greek and Roman world

エピダウロス（古代ギリシア語: Ἐπίδαυρος / Epídauros）あるいはエピダヴロス（現代ギリシャ語: Επίδαυρος / Epídavros）は、ギリシャ・ペロポネソス半島東部に位置する古代ギリシアの港湾都市。現在はペロポネソス地方に属する基礎自治体（ディモス）のひとつである。エピダウロスは、ギリシア神話の名医アスクレピオスゆかりの聖地とされる。アスクレピオスを祀った聖域の遺跡には、古代の劇場が美しい形で残っていることで知られ、「エピダウロスの考古遺跡」として世界遺産に登録されている。この遺跡を単に「エピダウロス」と呼ぶこともあるが、遺跡は港町エピダウロスからは8km離れた郊外にある。
