Challenge

Galen, Greek Galenos, Latin Galenus, (born 129 CE, Pergamum, Mysia, Anatolia [now Bergama, Turkey]—died c. 216), was a Greek physician, writer, and philosopher who exercised a dominant influence on medical theory and practice in Europe from the Middle Ages until the mid-17th century. 

He was called to Rome by the joint emperors Lucius Verus and Marcus Aurelius to accompany them on a military campaign in northern Italy. After Verus’ sudden death in 169, Galen returned to Rome, where he served Marcus Aurelius and the later emperors Commodus and Septimius Severus as a physician. Galen was both a universal genius and a prolific writer: about 300 titles of works by him are known, of which about 150 survive wholly or in part.   Britannica.

HELPING GALENUS CHALLENGE

Emperor Commodus thinks his enemies want to poison him. That is why he asks Galenus to prepare an antidote (theriac) to protect himself. Galenus has to look for the components of the antidote which are very difficult to obtain. If he doesn't, the emperor Commodus will assassinate him. Are you willing to help Galenus?

Inexplicably, doctor Galenus has managed to get in touch with the members of our project. Take a look at his message.

Are you willing to help Galenus find the components of the antidote against the poison that the cruel emperor Commodus is asking for? 

CHALLENGE RULES

1-The goal of each international team is to be the first to find the names of the eight components that Galen needs in order to make the antidote demanded by the Emperor Commodus.

2-The name of each of the 8 components of the poison antidote can be obtained by correctly answering the questions about the biography of Galenus and Emperor Commodus in each of the 8 Google forms of the challenge.
