    In the process of fighting diseases for thousands of years, the working people of our country have gradually accumulated a wealth of medical knowledge through practice and continuous understanding. Due to the lack of writing in the primeval period, this knowledge could only be dictated by teachers, and later when writing was available, it was gradually recorded and medical books appeared. These books serve to summarize the experience of predecessors and facilitate circulation and promotion.

    Chinese medicine has a history of thousands of years, and it is a summary of the rich experience of the Chinese people in the long-term struggle against diseases, and has made great contributions to the prosperity of the Chinese nation. Since herbs account for the majority of medicines, books that record medicines are called "Materia Medica". According to research, during the Qin and Han dynasties, the herbs were more popular, but unfortunately these herbs have died out and cannot be investigated.

    The earliest known work of Materia Medica is called "Shennong's Materia Medica", the author is unknown, according to the place names recorded in it, it may be that the Eastern Han Dynasty physicians revised the works of their predecessors. Shennong's Materia Medica "Shennong's Materia Medica" is a total of three volumes, containing drugs including animal, plant, mineral, three categories, a total of 365 kinds, each drug has a sexual taste, function and indications, and a brief description of the basic theory of medication, such as toxic and non-toxic, four qi and five flavors, compatibility law, medication methods and pills, powder, ointment, wine and other dosage forms, which can be said to be a summary of China's drug knowledge before the Han Dynasty, and laid the foundation for the future development of pharmacy. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Tao Hongjing of the Liang Dynasty (452 536 AD) compiled and supplemented the "Shennong Materia Medica" and wrote the book "Notes on the Materia Medica", which added 365 kinds of drugs used by famous doctors in the Han and Wei dynasties, called "Famous Doctors".

    Under each medicine, it not only supplements the original taste, function and indications, but also increases the origin, collection time and processing methods, which greatly enriches the content of "Shennong's Materia Medica". In the Tang Dynasty, due to the development of productive forces and the increasingly frequent foreign traffic, in response to the needs of the situation, Li Ji and others were assigned to preside over the addition and revision of the Materia Medica annotated by Tao, called "Tang Materia Medica", and then ordered Su Jing and others to re-amend, adding 114 kinds of medicines, which were promulgated in the fourth year of Xianqing (659 AD), called "New Revision of Materia Medica" or foreign drugs were imported one after another, and the variety of drugs increased day by day. In order to adapt to the "Tang New Materia Medica", this book was revised and promulgated by the first at that time, so it can be regarded as the earliest pharmacopoeia in China and the world.

    This Materia Medica contains 844 kinds of medicines, and is accompanied by a drug atlas, which has created a precedent for the first comparison of Chinese herbal works, which not only has a great impact on the development of pharmacology in China, but also will soon spread abroad; It has made an important contribution to the development of world medicine.

    Since ancient times, China has used animal and plant trunks, rhizomes, and fruits to match ** diseases, and other countries almost don't use this thing. Therefore, China is the homeland of traditional Chinese medicine, and it is well deserved.
