Short Description
"Hygieia is a goddess from Greek, as well as Roman, mythology (also referred to as: Hygiea or Hygeia; /haɪˈdʒiːə/; Ancient Greek: Ὑγιεία or Ὑγεία, Latin: Hygēa or Hygīa). Hygieia is a goddess of health (Greek: ὑγίεια - hugieia), cleanliness and hygiene. Her name is the source for the word "hygiene".

Hygieia is related to the Greek god of medicine, Asclepius, who is the son of the Olympian god Apollo. Hygieia is most commonly referred to as a daughter of Asclepius and his wife Epione. Hygieia and her four sisters each performed a facet of Apollo's art: Hygieia (health, cleanliness, and sanitation); Panacea (universal remedy); Iaso (recuperation from illness); Aceso (the healing process); and Aglaïa (beauty, splendor, glory, magnificence, and adornment)." - (en.wikipedia.org 11.08.2021)
