Sağlık bilimleri amblemleri ve kökenleri

Abstract

The snake was the constant element of most emblems used by health professions and institutions in our country. It was again observed that the emblems of main health disciplines such as pharmacy and dentistry, especially the most well-established medical faculties of our country, dated back to Anatolian Seljukian Dar Al-Shifas. Apart from these, different snake figures intertwining a tree, branch, stick, wand, pencil, torch, itself or one another were present in the symbols of other professions and institutions in the field of health.
