C., llamados así por su confección de telas rojas a partir de crustáceos (del griego phoinix). Los estudios respecto a su medicina iniciaron en los templos de Sidón con base en el Dios-médico Eshmún (origen de Asclepíades) donde se curaba y enseñaba medicina que sanaba, alejando a los malos espíritus, según era la mecánica de salud-enfermedad de este pueblo (la lucha entre Baal, otro dios médico, y Mot dios de la muerte). Al parecer el escrito más antiguo de su medicina fue el papiro de Ebers que fue escrito por un oculista de Babylos (Fenicia). En la cirugía se han documentado reparaciones de callo óseo de caídas y lesiones por arma punzocortante, así como lesiones por escorbuto, propias de los pueblos marítimos.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: We present an analysis of the most important elements of Phoenician medicine and surgery, which was a culture that covered all points of the Mediterranean coast between the years 2000 to 200 B.C. So called because of their making of red fabrics from crustaceans (from the Egyptian kena&#8217;ani, and from the Greek phoinix). Studies regarding their medicine began in the temples of Sidon based on the doctor-god Eshmun (a species of Asclepiades where medicine was cured and taught) who healed, warding off evil spirits, according to the mechanics of health and illness of this people (the fight between Ba&#8217;al, another medical god, and Muth, god of death). Apparently the oldest writing on his medicine was the Ebers papyrus, which was written by an oculist from Babylos (Phoenicia). In surgery, bone callus repairs from falls and injuries from sharp weapons have been documented, as well as injuries from scurvy, typical of maritime peoples.]]></p></abstract>
