Argolis, also called the Argolid and known as the Birthplace of Medicine, is a regional unit of Greece situated in the easternmost part of the Peloponnese.

The latter was a popular site for travelers to visit, often in search of the famed physician Hippokrates, and it also played a substantial role in the development of Hippocratic Oath. Because of its abundance of flowers and herbs, the land was a vital source for many medicines in ancient Greece.[1]
