摘要、提要註:	From the earliest times, the medicinal properties of certain herbs were connected with deities, particularly goddesses.

Riddle argues that the pomegranate, mandrake, artemisia, and chaste tree plants substantially altered the development of medicine and fertility treatments. The herbs, once sacred to Inanna, Aphrodite, Demeter, Artemis, and Hermes, eventually came to be associated with darker forces, representing the instruments of demons and witches. Riddle's ground-breaking work highlights the important medicinal historythat was lost andargues for its rightful place as one of the predecessors.

Only now with modern scientific research can we begin to understand the basis and rationality that these divine connections had and, being preserved in myths andreligious stories, they continued to have a significant impact throughthe present day.

The herbs, once sacred to Inanna, Aphrodite, Demeter, Artemis, and Hermes, eventually came to be associated with darker forces, representing the instruments of demons and witches.
