Artemidorus documents and interprets thousands of dream …

Years: 148 - 159

Artemidorus documents and interprets thousands of dream reports around 150 in his book Oneirocritica (a combination of the Greek oneiros, "dream," and kritikos, "critical").

Unlike his predecessors Hippocrates, Aristotle, and Galen, who believed that dreams often contained physiological information that heralded future medical illnesses, Artemidorus maintains that symbols in dreams do not have one universal meaning.
