Centaury belongs to the Erythraea genus and the genus name of this herb has been drawn from the Greek word ‘erythros’ denoting red – the color of centaury flowers. Earlier, the genus Erythraea was known as Chironia, derived from the name Centaur Chiron, an eminent personality in Greek mythology who was well-known for his talent in herbal medicines and is believed to have healed his wound sustained accidentally from a septic (poisoned) arrow dipped in the blood of hydra with herbs. In fact, the English name of the herb also originated from Centaur Chiron. Centaury was frequently used in treatment of snake bites and fever in the past, hence the nickname “feverwort”.
