Abstract
La biografía de Democedes presente en la Historia de Herodotus constituye un documento
esencial para conocer la situación de la medicina griega de finales del siglo VI a.C., así como
el papel que los médicos desempeñaban en el seno de la sociedad. Aunque Heródoto no
proporciona una datación cronológica precisa, se puede establecer una correlación cronológica
aproximada de la vida de Democedes.
