Asclepius's resurrection of the dead with the clean blood of the Gorgons disturbed the peace of the god Zeus and sent one of his lightning to Asclepius, destroying him. His father, Apollo, avenged his son by killing the Cyclops, who were the lightning source of Zeus. According to the story told in Anatolian lands, after the death of Asclepius, the prescription that Asclepius held was mixed with the soil, and with the rains, a panacea appeared here. Wild garlic, which is still used in the treatment of diseases today, is grown in Pergamon Asclepion and its surrounding.
