Yet it is a priceless source for research in comparative linguistics. In this article in which the author does not intend to be exhaustive, are used two Syriac treatises: an anonymous published by Budge in 1919, the other one from the BNF, Paris, being still unedited. A lot of fifteen plant names, the majority of which are employed in medicinal receipts, are studied from a linguistic point of view. The author would like to show how these names passed from a language to other ones, namely from Greek to Syriac or from Middle-Persian or New persian to Syriac. The variety of language changes also witness the transmission of the Hippocrates and Galen’s medicine and pharmacopeia by the Syrians to the Iranian world.
