Question
Visitors would seek to experience one of these events to be healed at the sanctuary of Asclepius in Epidaurus in a process called incubation. In Book 6 of the Odyssey, one of these events prompts Nausicaa to wash her clothes, which causes her to find Odysseus shipwrecked on a beach. While discussing these events in Book 2 of the Odyssey, Penelope says that they exit the Greek Underworld through either a gate of horn or a gate of ivory. The Oneiroi (“OH-nay-roy” ) are dark-winged personifications of these events. Hesiod describes personifications of these events as the offspring of Nyx and the brothers of Hypnos. For 10 points, name this type of nocturnal event governed by the god Morpheus. ■END■
