Zeus killed Asclepius because he was snatching the dead heading towards the under world to heal them. Hades complained to zeus that he was being robbed by asclepius and so Zeus threw a lighting bolt toward him and it killed both Asclepius and the patient he was tending. I got this from the book heroes,gods, and monsters of the Greek myths by Bernard evslin. I hope this helped. :)
Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine and healing, met his demise due to his ability to resurrect the dead, which angered Zeus. Fearing that Asclepius would upset the natural order by bringing too many people back to life, Zeus struck him down with a thunderbolt. Following his death, Asclepius was honored as a deity, and his legacy lived on through healing temples and practices in ancient Greece.
Asclepius was the god of medicine I believe.
The sons of Apollo included Orpheus, Asclepius (also known as Asclepius), and Aristaeus. Orpheus was a gifted musician and poet, Asclepius was the god of healing, and Aristaeus was associated with beekeeping and agriculture.
Hygeia is the daughter of Asclepius and Epione; or the husband of Asclepius and daughter of Eros and Peitho.
Eros had with Psyche a daughter named Hedone. Eros is also sometimes said to have had by Peitho a daughter named Hygeia, who is better known as a daughter of Asclepius and Epione, or a wife of Asclepius.
he is the god of healing.
Asclepius/Aesculapius is not a child of Zeus. His parents are Apollo and Coronis.
