Meges of Sidon
Meges (Greek: Μέγης; 1st century BC) was an eminent surgeon born at Sidon in Phoenicia,[1] who practised at Rome with great reputation and success, shortly before the time of Celsus, and therefore probably in the 1st century BC.[2] He wrote some works which are highly praised and several times quoted by Celsus, but of which nothing remains. He is, perhaps, the same person who is quoted by Pliny,[3] Galen,[4] and Scribonius Largus.[5] A Greek fragment by Meges is preserved by Oribasius.[6]
