Everything about Telesphorus Mythology totally explained
In
Greek mythology (especially in
Thrace),
Telesforos (or
Telesphoros) was a son of
Asclepius. He frequently accompanied his sister,
Hygieia. He was a dwarf whose face was always covered with a cowl and a
Phrygian cap. He symbolized recovery from illness, as his name means "bringing fulfillment" in Greek. He likely originated circa 100 AD in
Pergamon as part of the large Asclepian cult there. His popularity increased in the 2nd century AD after
Epidaurus, the home to the Asclepius cult, and other places adopted his cult. Representations of him occur mainly in
Anatolia and the area around the
Danube.
