Artemisia is derived from Artemis, the Greek goddess of wild creatures and the hunt. Greek legend holds that the plant was delivered to Chiron, the father of medicine, by the goddess herself. The common name, wormwood, is said to have derived from its historical use in expelling intestinal worms. Alternatively, the name may have originated from the Anglo-Saxon word “wermode” or “wermuth”, meaning “mind preserver”. Wormwood was employed in traditional European herbalism to support the digestive system. It was utilized in ancient Greece for intestinal parasites and as a general wellness tonic. The plant is commonly infused into herbal tea blends, crafted into tinctures, or integrated into other botanical formulations.
