Research Abstract |
In the Roman World doctors who guarded Roman citizens'health and teachers who educated the free citizens on "artes liberales" were often treated all together and were recorded in documents as "medici et praeceptores". The Romans thought that in the Roman World doctors and teachers had something in common between them. The majority of physicians and teachers were Greek or of Greek descent and most of them were from the lower classes. In short, most were slaves, freedmen or their descendants. How could slaves grow up into teachers or doctors? How could slaves be educated? Why could abandoned children be educated? Who teached them? And why? I read many epigraghs and continued my research in epigraphy. I suppose that abandoned children were educated for pecuniary gain.
