Research described in this article is the first attempt in specialist literature to take up ethno-pharmaceutical studies, which were made in the remarkably interesting area of Puńsk and Sejny. What makes the area so interesting and unique is its situation on the border of cultures that have been blending for centuries: mainly Lithuanian and Polish, but also influenced by others – Baltic and Slavic (Byelorussian, Russian). The authors are aware of the fact that the results presented are quite fragmentary; they reveal just a small bit of a vast research field that can be called ethno-pharmacy of the borderlands, the place of meeting of folk traditions, beliefs and customs of neighbouring ethnic groups. The outcome of Puńsk’s and Sejny’s studies should become an inspiration to undertake similar research in other regions where such diverse cultural communities co-exist, and there are many such places in Poland, Lithuania, Byelorussia and Ukraine.

Artykuł przedstawia krótką historię lecznictwa za pomocą substancji naturalnych pozyskiwanych z roślin, praktykowanego w świecie od czasów najdawniejszych po erę dzisiejszych środków farmaceutycznych opartych na chemii. Ukazano w nim niezwykłe właściwości fitoterapii stosowanej od starożytności przez rozmaite społeczności kulturowo-cywilizacyjne. Opisano środki, jakimi dysponowali starożytni, a także jakich doświadczeń i odkryć dokonali uczeni późniejszych epok. Zwrócono uwagę na to, jakie obserwacje poczynione wieki temu okazały się ważne dla dalszego rozwoju medycyny, antropologii medycznej, etnobotaniki.

The article presents a brief history of natural medicine based on substances derived from plants, practiced in the world from the earliest days up until the era of presentday chemistry-based pharmaceuticals. The unusual properties of phytotherapy applied from the ancient times in various cultural and civilizational communities have been shown. The author describes the means available to the ancients, as well as the experiments and discoveries made by scholars of later ages. Attention was paid to the observations important for the development of medicine, medical anthropology and ethnobotany.
