About Asclepiades Titiensis

Asclepiades Titiensis was a physician.

Asclepiades Titiensis or Citiensis was a physician of Ancient Greece who must have lived in or before the second century CE, as he is quoted by the Greco-Roman medical writer Caelius Aurelianus at that time. Caelius describes him as an authority regarding his pre-eminence in identifying apoplexy with paralysis.

While this name is rendered "Titiensis" in many of the early editions of Caelius's work, it has been suggested his name was originally "Citiensis", and that "Titiensis" was an error introduced by an earlier copyist. Later editions are split whether to call him "Titiensis" or "Citiensis". He may be the same person as Apollonios of Kition.
