EPIDAURUS, ancient Greek city on the east coast of Argolis on the Saronic Gulf. Epidaurus was an important commercial center and the site of a temple dedicated to Asclepius, the Greek god of healing. On the modern site is a museum of classical antiquities and a restored 14,000-seat amphitheater in which a festival of ancient Greek drama is held each summer. Another city of the same name, Epidaurus Limera, was located on the east coast of Laconia.
