The ancient agora, or gathering place, on Kos, Greece.

The contemporary municipal agora, or market, on Kos, Greece.

The tree where legend portends that Hippocrates, who was said to be from Kos, taught students the Hippocratic oath. The Idiot doesn’t quite buy this and you’ll learn what he thinks about Hippocrates, Kos and much more, in “The Idiot and the Odyssey II: Myth, Madness and Magic on the Mediterranean.”
