Nicander

Nicander van Colophon (Oudgrieks: Νίκανδρος ὁ Κολοφώνιος, Níkandros ho Kolophṓnios) (ca. 150 v.Chr.) was een Alexandrijns grammaticus, dichter en geneesheer. Van hem zijn twee geneeskundige leerdichten bewaard: de Theriaca (Θηριακά / Thēriaká), over middelen tegen de beet van gifslangen, en Alexipharmaca (Ἀλεξιφάρμακα / Alexiphármaka), over middelen tegen vergiftigde spijzen. In de latere Romeinse tijd, tot in de Byzantijnse tijd toe, bleef men dit droge leerdicht in geneeskunde, astronomie, geografie en andere wetenschappen bij voortduring gebruiken.
