This dissertation investigates the intersections of health, medicine, and religion during what we might call "the long Classical period." In it, I argue that the power and attraction of healing cults at the close of the Archaic period up through the beginning of the Hellenistic one (c.500-300 BCE) encapsulates the complicated web weaving together Greeks' ideas about health and healing; their individual experiences at healing shrines; the relationship between landscape, politics, and healing; and medico-religious practice as a basis of transcultural interactivity across the Mediterranean basin. Ultimately, I propose that the healing encounter-both in its "religious" and "secular" aspects-acts as a central site in the production cultural forms and social relations adaptable to the disparate needs of individuals, polities, and peoples in the ancient world.
