Dymas was a physician working at Fort Tiryns in Argolis, Greece during the Peloponnesian War.

Biography[edit | edit source]

During the war, Dymas was employed to work at Fort Tiryns and treat the wounded soldiers stationed there. At one point, the commander of the fort stole Hippokrates' notes on the diseases of the mind, and gave them to Dymas. The notes were burned in an attack on the fort, but not before Dymas had committed them to memory.[1]

In an attempt to help Hippokrates, the Spartan misthios Kassandra sought out Dymas at Fort Tiryns, and requested the notes. Lacking them, she asked that Dymas come with her instead, to help Hippokrates.[1]

Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]

The necklace worn by Dymas in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is not the Rod of Asclepius, the emblem of medicine and doctors. Instead, it's the caduceus. The main difference between the two is that the former has just one snake, whereas the latter has two.
