List of Dacian plant names information


Centaury, Stirsozila in Dacian language, as depicted in 6th-century Leiden manuscript of Pseudo-Apuleius' Herbarius
Skiare, Dacian for Wild Teasel, depicted in 6th-century Vienna manuscript of Dioscorides' De Materia Medica

This is a list of plant names in Dacian, surviving from ancient botanical works such as Dioscorides' De Materia Medica (abb. MM) and Pseudo-Apuleius' Herbarius (abb. Herb.). Dacian plant names are one of the primary sources left to us for studying the Dacian language, an ancient language of South Eastern Europe. This list also includes a Bessian plant name and a Moesian plant name, both neighboring Daco-Thracian tribes, as well as a clear Albanoid name. According to linguist Vladimir I. Georgiev, the suffixes -dela, -dil(l)a, -zila and -tilia indicate names of medicinal plants.[1]
