The History of the Apothecary's Origins

Once upon a time, in a public health era that now seems impossibly remote, there existed a world where narcotics were freely available at any time and place. In this era, apothecaries utilized those exciting druggists who precisely blended plants and minerals, sometimes with the addition of animal fat or earwax, to cure their fellow man’s ills.

Traditional usage of the word "apothecary" encompassed both the drug manufacturer and the drug dealer. Apothecaries, though staples of fantasy cultures, were not supernatural, magical individuals that possessed secrets of great worth.

Legends of an Old Communities Healer

There is a long and rich, mysterious history of using plants for medical purposes that connect people worldwide. Herbs, plants, roots, flowers, and fungi all played essential roles in developing the first medicines.

Archaeologists have discovered various subculture artifacts dating back to the Paleolithic period, about 60,000 years ago, indicating medicinal herbs being utilized. The Sumerians of ancient Mesopotamia created the earliest credible record of herbal treatments more than 5,000 years ago. Over 250 different plant species were represented in the medicine concoctions carved into clay tablets.

The Vedic writings and the Ayurvedic (the science of life) traditions of East India are rich with descriptions of edible herbs and their uses. Charaka 800 B.C and Sushruta 500 B.C were two of the first Ayurvedic herbalists to document the use of the plant, mineral, and animal preparations. These early formulations, or herbal mixtures, were used to create therapeutic prescriptions.

In addition, up to 80% of people in low-income regions rely only on herbal remedies as their primary healthcare, while more than 25% of Western medicine is based on natural herbs.

Historically, the practice of Herbal Apothecary and its effects on the mind-body connection has been held in high regard, almost to the point of the sacrament.

Some contemporary animists have analogized this to a vast web of life, where each node represents a unique life and the interconnected strands branch out in myriad ways. When a person passes away, their consciousness is reabsorbed into that vast web, and a new node is formed over time. Is this node comparable to the one before it? Probably not. It has developed and matured, and the process of evolution and growth continues.
