Abstract

The medicine of today has been evaluated as the inheritance of the Mediterranean civilization of which fundamental sources date back even to the Sumerian and the Mesopotamian medicine. It is necessary to start with those ancient cultures for researching historically the adventure of medicinal drugs utilized in medicine at present. As a matter of fact, on the basis of the pharmaceutical books it was referred to, the research of mandragore's use in medicine throughout the history serves as a good example to that aim.
