Herbs & Spices
Gathering herbs has been a Greek habit since ancient times, given their use as a raw material in medicine, perfumery, fabric painting and the kitchen. From Centaur Chiron of Greek mythology to the father of medicine, Hippocrates, and then to Dioskourides, who set the foundations of botanology, the already known use of herbs continued extensively during Christianity and developed more in the Middle Ages, while nowadays the interest in the use of aromatic and pharmaceutical herbs remains undiminished.
