Ancient Greek medical practitioners placed significance on the number 4. This was because of the four seasons and the four earthly elements. Medicine focused on keeping the four humors of the body in balance. These were thought to be sanguine (blood), choleric (yellow bile), melancholic (black bile), and phlegmatic (phlegm).
