The original "medicine men" in history were actually women. Briffault writes on this subject, "The connection of women with the cultivation of the soil and the search for edible vegetables and roots made them specialists in botanical knowledge, which, among primitive peoples, is extraordinarily extensive. They became acquainted with the properties of herbs, and were thus the first doctors." He adds:

The word "medicine" is derived from a root meaning "knowledge" or "wisdom" - the wisdom of the 'wise woman." The name of Medea, the medical herbalist witch, comes from the same root.... "The secret of the witch," said an Ogowe native, "is knowing the plants that produce certain effects, and knowing how to compound and use the plants in order to bring about the desired result; and this is the sum and essence of witchcraft." In the Congo it is noted that woman doctors specialise in the use of drugs and herbal pharmacy. In Ashanti the medicine women are "generally preferred for medical aid, as they possess a thorough knowledge of barks and herbs." In East Africa "there are as many women physicians as men." (The Mothers, vol. I, p. 486)

Dan McKenzie, in The Infancy of Medicine (1927), lists hundreds of ancient remedies, some of which are still in use without alteration, while others have been only slightly improved upon. Among these are substances used for their narcotic properties. A fleeting review indicates the astounding scope of these medicinal products. Useful properties were developed from acacia, alcohol, almond, asafetida, balsam, betel, caffeine, camphor, caraway, chaulmoogra oil (a leprosy remedy), digitalis, gum barley water, lavender, linseed, parsley, pepper, pine tar, pomegranate, poppy, rhubarb, senega, sugar, turpentine, wormwood, and hundreds more. These came from regions all over the globe-South America, North America, Africa, China, Europe, Egypt, etc. Not only vegetable but animal substances were made into remedies; snake venom, for example, was converted into a serum to be used for snake bites, the equivalent of today's antivenin.

According to Marston Bates, very little had been added to this remarkable ancient collection of medicine, until the discoveries of sulfa and antibiotics. "How primitive man discovered the ways of extracting, preparing and using all of these drugs, poisons and foods, remains one of the great mysteries of human prehistory," he writes (The Forest and the Sea, p. 126). But it is not so mysterious when we look in the direction of the female sex and become acquainted with the hard work, vast experience, and nimble wits of primitive womankind, preoccupied with every aspect of group survival.

Not only medicine but the rudiments of various other sciences grew up side by side with the craft and know-how of women. Childe points out that to convert flour into bread requires a knowledge of biochemistry and the use of the yeast microorganism. This substance also led to the production of fermented liquors and beer. Childe also gives credit to women for "the chemistry of potmaking, the physics of spinning, the mechanies of the loom, and the botany of flax and cotton" (What Happened in History, p. 59).

Part 2

This is Doctor Casper Darling, formerly of the Federal Bureau of Control. I think this signal is coming through now, are you receiving me?

Something shifted, the previously observed interference disrupting my broadcast is gone. A fluctuation in gravitational forces. Either something moved out of the way, or my relative position to it changed the alignment, and or the condition of this whole plane spiraled to a more favorable position.

The ordinary rules of reality do not apply here. The best I can describe this place is as a dreamscape. But who is the dreamer?

And how do you wake up from this dream?

i found out something about medusa that i think almost no one know about

You probably know that ovid changed the origins of medusa that she was a normal woman and was raped by Poseidon in athena's temple and she was cursed by athena. Of course this wasn't the case in the actual ancient greece, since it was actually said in the theogony that she was a monster from birth, but there's this thing: Ovid did invent the rape, yes, but he wasn't the 1st one that made medusa being cursed by athena. There was this other greek author named apollodorus, or pseudo-apollodorus, in his Bibliotheca, that in his collections of greek myths he writes that indeed, medusa was cursed by athena, but it wasn't because of a rape or forbidden romance, it was because medusa was a very vain woman who like to brag about her beauty and hair, and had the foolish idea of saying that her hair looked betten than athena.

Yeah this is why I can never take the “Athena was actually blessing Medusa!” Thing seriously, every single version of them from Greek to Roman are against each other. The only woman who blessed Medusa with her monsterous appearance is her mother Ceto who is really slept on.

Like if ppl want myths where Athena is nice and protective of women there are plenty of those (but the Athena antis don’t want you to know that lol), did y’all know that Athena, Artemis and Persephone were childhood friends? Did you know that she helped 50 princesses (the Danaides) escape from forced marriage and then helped purify them from murdering their husbands?

“The ancient practice of herbalism started by our ancestors noting how animals would consume specific plants when sick, intuitively aware of their medicinal properties.” - Simon Jr. Jackson, The Lost Herbal Medicine Bible

medical history protip: if an article claims that the Ebers papyrus "contains evidence of [whatever medical treatment the article is about]", don't take it at face value because a solid 50% of the time, if not more, it's bull.

For Eternity - Small Hours

“Is she asleep as she should be?” Gaia asked the nanny as she stepped out of the room.

“Oh the girl is as stubborn as ever!” The nanny griped, stomping a hoof. “She INSISTED on staying awake until you returned! No wonder she hasn't healed from her ailment yet!”

The monarch smiled warmly. “I figured as much. You are excused, Madam Throw. I shall put her to bed.”

Gaia tapped on the doors three times, then gently pushed them open. “Proving your mischief once again, Little Serene Remedy? You ought to know better by now!”

“Eve!” The filly on the bed exclaimed, kicking her hooves under the covers in eagerness. “Gosh! You took FOREVER! What did that Oracle pony have to say?? Are you going on a grand dangerous quest? If so, can I come?!”

“Oh I wouldn't think somepony in your condition would make such a journey if there was one. Little fillies like you are already long asleep.” Gaia calmly lectured, dragging the blanket back over Remedy.

“Isn't that what you love most about me?” Remedy tilted her head curiously. “That I'm not like most other fillies?” she kicked the blanket back off.

Gaia giggled “Well, absolutely! But you're also notorious for these sick bouts, and you need your rest.” This time the monarch tucked the comforter under the mattress.

Remedy groaned. “Awwww! I can't sleep now! You GOTTA tell me what the Oracle pony said!”

“That can all wait until tomorrow, young lady.” Gaia scolded, turning to pick up a small bottle. “Now, I see you have not taken your medicine yet.”

The filly scrambled under the covers. “Noooooo!”

“Come now. Do you enjoy feeling so under the weather?”

“....no.”

“Then be a big girl and come out.”

“....fine.” Remedy obeyed, crawling back up.

Gaia took a spoon, and floated it over to the filly. “Say ‘aaaaaaaaah’!” She made a silly face.

“.....aaaaaaaa–EUGH!” Remedy soured. She locked her own mouth shut with great effort, trying hard to not spit it out.

Gaia shook her head. “Such a dramatic filly. What are we going to do with you? Now get some rest.”

“Eve, wait.” Remedy grabbed at her hoof on the bed. “Can you tell me what the Oracle pony looked like at least? Were they super mysterious?”

The older pondered. “Well…yes. They were. But they were no pony.”

“Huh?”

“It was an Abyssinian Catfolk.” Gaia explained.

The little filly’s eyes sparkled in intrigue. “A catfolk?! How tall were they? You can't leave with just that!”

Gaia sighed. “I shall tell you all the details at the crack of dawn. Is that a good middle ground?”

Remedy pondered. “I suppose that's fair…can we walk in the garden? I want to see the flowers bloom.”

The monarch chuckled. “Sounds wonderful.”

——————————

Queen Gaia Eve spent the rest of her night on her balcony, motionless and waiting for the sun to rise, wondering if it really might be for the last time one day soon.

“It's funny to hear how the life you know will end. It was so ominous, so mysterious, so vague….” She wondered to herself.

Not a day went by as the years rolled on the Oracle's message didn't ring in her head.

But she couldn't let it dwindle for long inside

Gaia had her royal duties to carry out.

Little Remedy grew up fast--before Gaia knew it she made plans to travel.

But Gaia stayed here in the castle….awaiting her future.

[inscrutable-shadow]

In plain sight for Than? :D

coming right up! (from this ask game!)

In Plain Sight - Thanatos does everything to hide his cold. Nothing gets past the Archfey, though.

Than felt awful.

It wasn't the usual ache of his soulstitching or the pounding headache of a bad hangover or even the bone-deep pain of healing a grievous wound and being low on blood. He couldn't remember the last time he felt like this: his head felt as if it were stuffed with cotton, each painful swallow sent a wave of despair welling up inside him, and he couldn't even think about eating, his stomach was roiling within him. Had he been somehow poisoned?

"Thanatos." He jumped, having forgotten the Archfey was even in the room. Ae was very close, suddenly, aer face inches from his own as ae leaned over the book handing listlessly from his hands.

"What-- ahem. What is it, my love?" He'd had to choke down a coughing fit. He hoped ae didn't notice, ae fretted so much when there was even the vaguest implication he was unwell.

"Your breathing has altered since yesterday. At first, I had thought it was a natural variation but no. Your soulsong is dissonant. You are in pain." Of course. It didn't matter what he did, Rea could see right through him.

A man could try, though. "I'm fine, Rea, just a bit tired. A day in will sort me out."

His lover's eyes narrowed. "I do not believe you, my love."

"W-well, it's… true…" This wasn't going to work.

"It is not. Either tell me what is wrong and how to help you, or I shall cast healing magic on you." That was a threat, the burst of light magic would definitely cleanse whatever this was, but the reaction with his contract would put him out of commission for two days.

Nothing for it, then. "Just a glass of wine with cinnamon and honey, the good stuff, not that modern swill. That should put me right enough." And if it didn't, he'd be drunk, and wouldn't notice.

The Archfey smiled. "A 400 BCE red, excellent choice. I shall have it for you momentarily." Really, aer presence was the best cure of all.
